Default Unlocking N96

Hi.. I would like to know what the best option is to unlock my N96.

  1. Is it safe to do it myself? If so how..
  2. Will a third party store do it for me for s price?
  3. Can i get my service provider (02) to unlock the phone?

These phones can only be unlocked using expensive equipment, take it to a shop, they will charge around £25.

iPhones can be unlocked by yourself now can't they? I'm sure their was an application released not so long back.

Not for the firmware i had..

Plus it voids the warranty once it is unlocked.
