Want to have an iPhone but for some reason you can't get your hands on one and instead have an iPod Touch? Then you're in luck, some random company based in Guangzhou, China has made a device that allows you to turn your iPod Touch into something that works like an iPhone. You've heard that right, the guys in China did it first.
What the device basically does is allowing the addition of a SIM card so that you can call with your iPod Touch. In order to do this, the device includes a speaker on top so that you can hear the calls, a SIM card slot, a baseband chip, a dock connector port and a "vibration motor" (possibly for silent mode or a similar functionality). Take note that it doesn't support 3G.
As with unofficial Apple products, you need to jailbreak your iPod Touch to gain access to the full features that the Apple Peel offers. The device will then install 2 applications, "Yosion" and "YsSMS".
As you can see, the user interface of Yosion has striking similarities with the phone application of the iPhone.
The SMS functionality is also similar to the iPhone.
You can then import your contacts from the SIM card to the on-board memory.
Overall, this is a nifty device to say the least. The question is, what will Apple do once they knew the existence of such device.
What's in it for you as a consumer?
(1) Save heaps from buying an expensive Apple iPhone 3G!
(2) Convert any unwanted or unused iPod (2nd or 3rd generation) to a real functioning, real Apple iPhone
(3) Avoid buy cheap knockouts or fake iPhone!
(4) Save tons of money making free calls via VIBER app on iPhone (it is free too)
(5) Send unlimited text messages to any phone number in the world via HeyWire free Apps
Downsides:

(2) Does not support GPRS

Some information I found while surfing the net regarding Apple iPhone 4G jailbreak and unlocking. Please do not use this information to jailbreak your iPhone 4G as it will void your warranty. The information listed below is a from the internet and had not been verified so you solely responsible for the use of the information contain on this post. The author of this blog will not be directly or indirectly responsible to any damaged or fault done by respective iPhone owner. In conclusion - use the information for educational purpose only and AT YOUR OWN RISK ;-)
In order to jailbreak and unlock an iPhone 3G, 3GS or iPhone 4 with 4.2.1 firmware, you need to be aware of the following information.
If you are using the newer version of iPhone 3GS, then you need to use untethered jailbreak, as this is the only available solution.
This new unlock process updates the existing baseband to the newer version, i.e. 06.15 version. Once you have updated your iPhone to this newer version, you can’t downgrade to an older version. Also, as soon as you update to the newer baseband, you will void the warranty on your iPhone as Apple will come to know about it.
In future, if any critical updates arrive, then you also need to update to the newer baseband version i.e. 06.15. So, there is no harm in updating it now, unless and until, you are not looking to update your iPhone in future.
With newer firmware versions starting from 4.2.1, you will not be able to restore your iPhone to stock firmware, and you will have to use a custom ipsw file for the same.
To unlock your Jailbroken iPhone 3G, 3GS or iPhone 4, read this tutorial How to Unlock iPhone 3G, 3GS or iPhone 4 on 4.2.1 firmware.
Before proceeding further, I assume that you agree to the above mentioned information. To jailbreak and unlock a 4.2.1 firmware based iPhone 3G, 3GS and iPhone 4.
