Hi,

I have a NZ Vodafone K800i (I'm on SUPA PREPAY).  Later this year, I will be relocating to Australia. 

I notice that Oz mobile carriers like Telstra, or Virgin are a much better bet for my needs than Vodafone Australia.  I was wondering, can I bring my NZ K800i and get a, say, Virgin SIM?  Will this work? 

I am under the impression that for most phones, this would work, but my issue is that for Sony Ericsson, it seems to have a close tie to Vodafone (the handset has a Vodafone sticker on it). 

Any help would be much appreciated. 

Regards,
