Jailbreak vs Unlocking

[muelgrub]

I, like many others, am anxiously awating a jailbreak for my iPhone 5 to join my jailbroken iPad 2. Since this is my first iPhone (having just switched from Andorid) am I correct in assuming that a jailbreak of the phone is NOT the same as unlocking the phone. I tried to get Sprint to unlock my phone so I can use it next week as I travel overseas, but they are being their usual D$%KS and won't do it.

So, once a jailbreak comes out, is the next step an unlocking utility?
thanks!!

Jailbreaking and unlocking are completely separate from each other. After jailbreaking, a locked phone will still be locked.

Don't have to convince me about the benefits of jailbreaking. The question is: When and how does one unlock???

If memory serves, the World iPhone 5 should work there but you will not be able to use the LTE cellular service only the 3G.

Sorry. No clue if you can buy the World iPhone 5 from an authorized dealer in the US.
