I am currently using my iphone in the US with ATT and will be moving to Beijing for 2 years. Will it work? Does China have 3G, GPS, email, web, etc?

Thanks!

It will work, but you won't be able to change operator (put in another sim card) unless you get it unlocked. You can use your AT&T subscription but the roaming charges will not be pretty.


As for not being launched in China, as long as you have data service and the phone is unlocked it will work with pretty much any 3g operator.


Email and web are just a function of the data service. You can, say, use gmail on the iPhone. Access through the data service.


Getting an iPhone unlocked is not that hard. Plenty of places do it. Your warranty will be voided though.

Cool, not worried about the warranty. Just wondering if I need to scrap this one and start over or not with a new one over there.

Thanks for the info!
