can someone shed light on unlocked phone? I've never bought an unlocked phone nor unlocked one myself. This new phone sells at T-Mobile for $300 without a plan, and then I assume it would be no more than $100 to get it unlocked (and probably less) at any of the unlocking sites. So, why would it be $499 to buy it unlocked on web sites and/or ebay? is it extra money so you don't have to deal with unlocking yourself? thanks.
