London - U.K. wireless carrier O2 plans to allow customers to unlock their Apple (NASD: AAPL) iPhones for use on competing networks, according to an interview with CEO Matthew Key published by the Times Online. "Once the iPhone becomes available on other UK networks, we will allow O2 customers to unlock their iPhones, although of course they will still need to honor any outstanding contract period they have. At the end of their contract period, they are entirely free to move to another operator," Key told the Times. O2 competitors Orange and Vodafone are expected to offer the iPhone in the U.K.
