There are quite a few people interested in unlocking these 801 series
phones, but no one has been successful yet.  

I heard one idea (from this list?) of offering to purchase a rented unit,
but we were told they do not rent the 801 series devices.  

I suppose they are trying to keep sales/profits on the GX3? - the
non-Japanese identity of this phone.  Although that doesn't help those of us
that spend big chunks of time in and out of Japan...

If you find a solution, please share as I know of many that would be
interested.

Thanks,
Mike
