2.2.1 is unlockable but currently you have to have the right baseband. If you are just buying a 3g or got one in the past few months, it will almost certainly ship with the new baseband.

You can jailbreak it easily with quickpwn, but if you do it, do not select unlock in the options.

It is 2.2.1 with modem firmware 02.30.03

when do you think we will be able to unlock?

Well...maybe...

There is no software unlock available for that baseband yet. I don't expect one soon either. But -and I have never used one of these so I cannot guarantee anything- there are Turbo Sim cards available. A turbo sim is sort of an adapter that your non-at&t sim sits in, and then you put that in the iPhone and it promises to unlock it by bypassing an authenticity check. The iPhone thinks it is a legitimate sim. I would only try this if you can get one for cheap (because I have no idea how well they work) and, try to buy from a good reseller. Ebay has them, which is probably your safest bet. I have heard they work fine, but I can't offer any hands-on experience.

What a Turbo Sim does-

1 brand new sealed retail package of the SIM unlock card (also known as a turbo SIM, a SIM adapter, a Hyper SIM, a SIM proxy, an unlock SIM, etc.).

It unlocks your iPhone 3G (all versions), up to firmware 2.2.1 with the baseband 02.30.03, enabling it to work with ANY local GSM services provider on 850/900/1800/1900mhz, such as AT&T, Cingular, T-mobile, Fido and Rogers.

On the silver seal, there is a unique serial number which you may enter on the manufacturer's official website to check its authenticity. All of our products are imported directly from the manufacturer, which guarantees their genuineness.
