Many wireless companies will unlock cell phones after the initial one- or two-year contract has been fulfilled. But AT&T says the iPhone is “different” and won’t be unlocked at the end of the contract:
AT&T will unlock phones for customers once they have fulfilled their contracts, which typically run one to two years. One big exception: Apple’s iPhone, distributed exclusively in the USA by AT&T. “That’s different,” says AT&T spokesman Mark Siegel.

AT&T Will not unlock the phone because they sell it exclusively. They did the same thing with the Razor. If the iPhone becomes available on other carriers, AT&T will then give out the unlock code. And don’t bother begging the customer service rep you are talking to, AT&T doesn’t tell it’s front line reps the information.
Ah well……guess we’ll just have to unlock them ourselves. Sorry AT&T. Needs must.
you know what else is different, at&t?
