I just bought a used iPhone 1st Gen for my Wife and she doesn't plan on using the data service, but we can't seem to get around that as it is out of the box. Now before I get flamed by everyone who can't understand not having it, please don't go there. My wife is a stay at home mom of two young kids and when she goes out she doesn't have time to surf the web or email. When she's out she wants to listen to music in the car or take a quick picture or use the phone- that's it. At home after the kids are in bed she likes to surf, email or play games via WiFi.
So my question is if I was able to unlock / jailbreak the iPhone will it allow me to use our AT&T service without them charging us for the Data service? Or do we need to switch providers? Will their computer system eventually see that we have an unlocked iPhone and charge us the data plan anyway?
