The one thing that I take the Tour over the Pixi is that it is unlocked for GSM carries out of the USA, since I travel a lot to Europe, all I have to do is buy a SIM card there with some prepaid minutes and i'm set to use my phone over there (i did a simple hack that Sprints allows, and now my Tour is unlocked even with US carriers, I used a friend's ATT SIM to test it!)

So if that's the only (or only important) thing Ryu, why don't you just buy the GSM version over Ebay? Should be available soon..

We still don't have a date.. where exactly are you going to be? There is an October rumor for the UK, also O2 Germany had October on their website (for like 5 minutes Wink ).. but it's all not official.

You might be lucky, I'd say you have a 50:50 chance.. but I don't know how O2 UK is going to sell them, I just know that O2 Germany is not selling sim-locked phones. It can be very different in each European country.

Price without a contract is going to be about 500 Euros I guess.

Cool... I'll also keep an eye out for advertisements. Hopefully Movistar or TIM offer an unlocked version too!
