Sorry if this has been asked already. I searched but didn't see anything. I have the 4s on ATT in the US and wondered if anyone knew the best way to unlock it for temporary use in Thailand. Also, if it can be unlocked what sim can I buy that has 3g and unlimited data? Thanks guys!

Apple does it again!
Apple announced today that it has developed a breast implant that is not only safe, but can store and play music as well.
The iTit will cost from $400 - $599, depending on cup and speaker size.
This is considered to be a major social breakthrough, as women are always complaining about men staring at their breasts and not listening to them.

Not really easy to unlock - I think they only *just* now released a jailbreak for it, and updated the unlock hack, but it might not work on the newest phones.
If you get it working, go with the TRUE interim, prepaid SIM. Go into a TRUE store to pick up a microSIM version, or go to MBK and someone will cut it for you.

Is It Ethical to Own an iPhone?
Business ethics may trump social ethics, but individuals are struggling in the light of revelations of suicides and inhumane labor conditions among some workers in China who make many Apple products
By David Mielach and BusinessNewsDaily - February 3, 2012
Recent media reports and ongoing protests over the reportedly abhorrent working conditions at factories where Apple's iPhones are produced have left socially conscious Americans with a dilemma: Is it ethical to own an iPhone?
For many Americans, even those who support socially responsible manufacturing and business practices, their iPhones and iPads have become must-have devices for both work and personal use. Now they're being forced to ask themselves whether they are willing to ignore strong evidence that their beloved devices are being made by mistreated and underpaid employees.
The charges of mistreatment of the workers who create Apple's products are not new. They have, however, gained mainstream momentum during the last months. The contradiction of Apple's $13 billion in profits in the fourth quarter of 2011 juxtaposed against images and stories of worker rights violations have painted a less than shining portrait of the tech giant.
According to a Jan. 25, New York Times report, the Foxconn Technology factory, where Apple manufactures many of their products, has repeatedly been criticized for ethics violations and socially irresponsible working conditions. Violations included in the report included:
• Crowded dormitories where many workers were forced to live.
• Workers forced to stand until their legs were swollen and they were unable to walk
• Underage workers
• Improper waste removal.
• Wages of less than $17 to $22 a day.
• Multiple suicide attempts by workers, including a recent instance where 150 workers threatened to jump off a roof due to a work and pay dispute.
Apple itself acknowledges the violations. It conducted 229 audits of supplier factories in 2011 and found 93 violations of exceeding the 60-hour workweek limit and a similar number of workers working six or more days a week. More information can be found at the Apple Supplier Responsibility webpage.
[Is Apple doing enough?]
That does not take into account two separate explosions last year at factories producing iPads, which killed four people and injured dozens more. Another violation occurred in January 2010 at an Apple factory owned by Wintek in which 137 workers were injured when they were forced to use a known dangerous chemical, n-hexane, to clean glass screens. It was used anyway because it dissolved three times faster than rubbing alcohol, meaning that more screens could be cleaned in a day.
These violations have prompted a strong response against Apple, including a Change.org petition that as of Feb. 1 had 154,581 signatures asking Apple to protect workers making products in factories overseas. Another petition, started on Sumofus.org, also asked Apple to make the iPhone 5 ethically.

Actually it was first brought to light 6 years ago, and this is just a follow up questioning why Apple still does nothing to correct it given their huge profits.

See above.
6 years ago? Really? A year and a half before the iPhone was released, your sources already knew about what it took to produce TWO unreleased products? Amazing!

Once again today as many times before, all the last 25 posts are iphone posts.
Why not name this the iphone forum instead of Bangkok Tonight forum ?

If you click on "Last 25 ALT" you will only see iPhone posts - obviously, as that is the explicit purpose of the ALTernate Last 25 filter.
Have you tried clicking, maybe, on the "Last 25" link to the left of it?
That scan is devoid of iPhone content - and if a non-filter Last 25 existed, there have only been 2-3 iPhone posts over the last several weeks, so chill out.
