Ya, they're all expensive, but do any of the other Canadian carriers absolutely REFUSE to unlock ANY of their phones? I'm asking because I don't know.

Here's the thing that I don't understand. From what I've been told, RIM will NOT warranty an unlocked Rogers BB. Why does RIM care if I've unlocked their phone, which is via a software method. What does me punching in a code have to do with my hardware's warranty? Sounds like I'm being tied into using Rogers for all of my international phone calls via a monopoly. Is this even legal in Canada?

I've been with Rogers over 10 years and they generate revenue of over $4k a year with me. I'm going to try to get an unlock code, just for fun. I really don't need it...not until next Summer anyways.

I'll keep you posted.
