iPhone accidently unlocked to work with Vodaphone?

Wow, while we can't confirm the news, sounds like someone in the UK is actually using an iPhone over Vodaphone's network.  Essentially the user used the previous iAsign exploit to unlock the phone from using the bundled SIM card from AT&T (a feat we documented a few days ago.)  The user then replaced the SIM with another AT&T SIM that just happened to work with Vodaphone, and Voila!

The user says Visual Voicemail doesn't work, which makes sense, but all other services work.  The phone still has the AT&T logo in the upper left corner, but regardless, some progress toward unlocking the iPhone.  Good news for UK residents on importing the phone too.
