not notable, likely a site set up by the company to cover their shady reputation -- see article history Modefier (talk) 15:43, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete POV article about non-notable company which appears to fail the significant coverage criteria for verifiability. Jasynnash2 (talk) 16:03, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. See abundant coverage in reliable sources at [http://news.google.com/archivesearch?q=UniquePhones this Google News archive search]. --Eastmain (talk) 21:13, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep, per Eastmain. Enough sources there with specific coverage of the company. Nsk92 (talk) 23:40, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep, but needs clean up. We66er (talk) 01:06, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

  • Weak Keep - seems to meet the notability criteria with mutliple RS (per Eastman) mentioning their IPhone on/off stuff. However - if this was a person, we'd be saying BLP1E applied, as all the coverage relates solely to unlocking iPhones and their claim to be able to do so; there's apparently no coverage of other aspects of the company. So, are they really notable, or should we consider it's 'notability by reflection' from the iPhone. Like I said, the company notability rules don't consider that, so they meet the letter of the rules. But not the spirit. MadScot (talk) 04:48, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
