I just purchased a BB 8700g from Cincinnati Bell today. Got the BB service for $35 per month with no contract which I was pleased with. My concern is can this phone be unlocked and used with Cingular or the others down the road? If I move out of the Cincinnati area I certainly don't want to keep a Cincinnati phone number. Anyone know?

Also, can the 8700 be used as a modem for a laptop while tethered?
