Sprint's iPhone 4S Will Come Unlocked for Roaming

Sprint may have the edge on its CDMA iPhone 4S when it comes to international roaming as MacWorld reports the carrier will be offering its version of the iPhone 4S, which will be released this weekend, with an unlocked micro SIM card slot. No need to worry about voiding your warranty by unlocking the phone, but you are still bound to Sprint's contract for two years anyway.

This bit of news, if it turns out to be true, will please iPhone users who travel outside the United States a lot. Now all they need is a foreign micro SIM card or get a full-sized SIM and cut it to micro proportions to avoid hefty roaming charges.

The big question now is whether this unlocked Sprint iPhone 4S will also work with a domestic AT&T or T-Mobile SIM card. Although that would be nice, that is unlikely to happen.
