1) No, the iPhone is locked to one carrier.

2) No, the iPhone does not permit tethering unless jailbroken.

[100degrees]

1) yes, you can use a prepaid sim IF unlocked

2) yes, you can tether IF jailbroken

also, you can get data(edge) on t-mobile prepaid (for $1 a day), if you set your account to "sidekick" plan

You need "DiskAid" on your mac and "FileAid" on your iPhone!

That would be awesome if I was on a mac.

Yes.

You can but I don't recommend it - I used mine in Hamburg and got a bill for $3500(!) that was refunded after I complained bitterly.

If you can unlock iPhones now - last i heard you can't - then getting a local SIM would be the way to go.

So, does each computer I want to transfer my files to have to have DiskAid on it in order to transfer them?

Man, why can't it be as simple as a friggin' thumb drive? It's retarded.

Blame Apple and their closed architecture.

I was pretty pissed to see tethering wasn't available via bluetooth, like on my 3 year old phone.
