    I used a Turbo Sim in my phone. Just pop it over your sim and away you go. Plus you can use the sim in other Nokias etc as well. Worth £20 IMO.

    Fuck £20, get one from www.dealextreme.com for less than a fiver delivered I have used their i-smartsim in a 6500 slide and works perfectly. A little fiddly though the way the sim holder in the phone is made but with a little tape holding the sim in place it works.

    If you are in a hurry I have one you can have for £10 delivered or £5.50 delivered (which should be cost price give or take 20p odd) if you become DF VIP .

    lol well if you can get one for a fiver then it makes more sense than paying a tenner etc to get the phone unlocked! I read they are hard to unlock for some reason?

    Not sure about actually unlocking any hpones anymore as I just use unlocking sims. The N80 is the only phone I couldn't do with a sim but the N95 and N95 8GB were easy as well as the 6500 and a couple of other phones I have tried.

    some of the turbo, xsims, rebel sims dont work well with the 6500 as i have tried many they seem to work well on every network but o2 for some reason but work brilliant in most other phones

    this is just speaking from my experience

    Is there anyway of unlocking the Nokia 6500 slide without using a turbo sim or having to goto the local market and have it done? the networks locked to Orange!
