AT&T: Free iPhone Unlocks for Deployed Military

Overseas communication is much easier with an unlocked phone.

In two short steps, AT&T has confirmed that it provides complimentary iPhone unlocks for military personnel deployed overseas.

The company's new Device Unlock Portal allows in-contract military users to apply online for an unlock, needing only to be a member in good standing and showing proof of deployment, according to Engadget.com.

An unlocked iPhone is integral to overseas travel -- or war-fighting.

It used to be that users had to be out-of-contract and then head to a retail store.
