    Sharp 923SH unlock?

    As you guys all know, the sharp 923SH just came out. I was wondering if the "new media" sim hack for the sharp 920SH will work for the 923SH since they are similar in appearance and both support gsm networks (Global Roaming). Because I can get they 923SH for a good price (around 200cdn) So I was wondering if is a good time to get it now or wait. Thanks!

    Hey, tokyo_dom, how did you manage to unlock GPRS in your 922SH? Or is it different from other Softbank models?

    Oh, scratch that, didn't notice you were in Japan.

    Hehe, yeah sorry i'm using this phone as it was intended... with a softbank sim and data plan. Though i am trying to encourage IonNuke with his unlocking efforts, because one day i will go back to Australia and i intend to bring this phone back with me fully unlocked (hey i can dream!)

    Had another look today, and still no hits on the 923SH. It only appeared in the shops last week so unless someone is sick of it already... It IS a bit bigger than the 920SH, but you cant notice it until you have them side by side

    Looks better though, with the chrome strip around the outside etc

    Of course you can dream.... Like what if you were writing SMS while driving your car and you hit a bump and your phone flies out your window???

    At least we know it will bounce ~~~~ oh boy~~~

    It's all good (^_^)

    image if you sold the 920SH for cheap. then that person just needs to spend 75 bucks for an full media unlock and voila! you got yourself a 920SH that is fully unlock for MUCH MUCH less than the ones you can get on ebay that go for 580.00 USD

    think about it...

    Is your friend Japanese? Because the only way you can get a phone on contract here as a foreigner is if you show a visa that has at least 2years on it (I was not able to get a contract since my visa expires in 1 yr). And then, you buy phones with the 2yr contract and pay them off over the 2yrs, at retail price (eg my 922SH was $680 under contract - 923SH would be similar)

    Not trying to sound negative, but it if he isnt Japanese it may be difficult for him to get a phone here (you can connect to softbank and pay monthly without contract, and all you need is a foreigner registration card, which you get if you are here for more than 3 months). If he does that he can buy any phone outright, but not on a payment plan like with the contract... It will be well above $200 though!

    He is not japanese...he is chinese...same as me. lol. He is only going there with a traveller's visa. But he has some japanese friends from osaka. I don't how is that going to work out, I was suppose to go with him this year but I couldn't because I am going to NY this year. But hmmm do u think 923SH is worth 200cdn right now?..or should I get it later...?
