==========
There is a difference between upgrading the firmware and unlocking a phone.
There is also a difference between an IMEI unlock and a hardware lock.
The K800i released by the 3 Network comes with a free UNLOCK CODE. This code will unlock the phone via IMEI (the phone's unique network identification).
Your brother probably has obtained a phone by 3 or another cellular provider that offered the free unlock code.
According to the report I read it is not yet possible to directly unlock the phone via cable.
Timmy mentioned that there are about 4-5 locks that can be activated, the IMEI lock being the easiest to unlock. Japanese phones unfortunatelly do not utilize IMEI unlocking and hence it is more difficult to unlock the SHARP 904SH via cable then to buy an unlocked K800i (both use the same chip DB2020).

Unstable Firmware
==================
If it were true the firmware + unlock would be available. At this stage there are no real success stories as the developers are still working on getting into the chip (DB2020).
If this phone should be unlocked over the next few months you will definatelly know about it, until then don't believe any reports unless you can see the evidence!
Apparently this one is a bit tougher to crack and the reports I have read from Timmy were not all that positive. Definatelly not impossible, but it might take longer than people would hope for.
The K800i (same chip) is currently upgradable but NOT YET unlockable. So we'll wait...
A thought for everyone:
=======================
Yes this phone is AWESOME, but think twice before buying even the cheaper LOCKED version. Even if unlocked, you will only be able to use the most basic functions, do not hope for any 3G/GPRS services or any other network dependant features.
If the screen, camera and mp3 player is all you're after, then go for it!

Near Chat is easy to navigate even if it's in japanese, me and aznboi128 met up to test it and we made it work w/o any effort.

Hi thierrs
You will have to flash this phone with a tool, its not as simple as just changing it, the country code meens nothing about the firmware.
The EU Firmware is EU.046
Thanks Tim

I feel that gsm arena has always had a strong bias towards "big brand" phones like Nokia, Motorola and SE....I wonder why they never review phones produced by manufacturers like Sharp, Toshiba and Panasonic...they may not have as big of a repertoire, but that doesn't make them less worthy of attention.....and to be honest, i find the reviews here way too lenient...never seen a strong criticism in any of the reviews....hahaha I feel this post is going to be erased soon...anyway just voicing my opinions

This is such a kick-ass phone! But from what I've read around the net they aren't going to release it in europe at all. I'm hoping someone unlocks it. The manga viewer option is cool on the japanese version..
