got this from a sri lankan blog...
i'm not gonna post the link here 'coz it probably whd be SPAM....

i guess this is what u r looking for....
Can we use iphone 3G in Sri lanka??
This is the question wich came into my mind when I wanted to buy an iPhone. Thought it is easy to jail brake (cracking software part) we still can’t unlock with the network (unlock the GSM network). There fore I like to say like this “still we can’t use it like a simple phone” BUT there is a sim called TURBO sim and you can patch with your existing sim and it works really well. I can guarantee since I am using it for couple of weeks.
Fellas..!! I like to make the statement for the above question like this!!!! …."You can buy an iPhone 3G and you can use it in Sri Lanka with Mobitel,Dialog,Hutch,Tigo or anything".

:nerd::nerd::):):rolleyes:

EDIT:
here's a description abt TURBO Sim....

What is your dialog SIM ? is it one of those new Max/Super (Transparent) SIMs ? Cos I've heard that some new phones work only with those (especially for 3G data services). If yours is not a super SIM then try with one of those.
