So what do you do with 50 V1620's?

I work for a College in Nottingham, we are running a project that comes to an end in a few weeks and we will be left with a minimum of 20 and a max of 50 of these PDA based phones! My thought was to unlock them, but how do you perform that? And also what then? are they just paperweights? Alex

Flog them on ebay?

Chances are the network wont unlock them from the network.

Question is though, how did you get them, and who paid for them? Surely it's the owners/purchasers decission??? I doubt they'd let them vanish so easily

Actually they belong to the College I work for (Well supplied by the government for a project) but they handed the ownership to us, so now we have them here all boxed etc! I personally am using 3 on piles of paper to weigh them down!

If it was me I'd sell them and give the money to charity*

Google XDA developers for unlocking tips.
