Completely unrelated, has anyone else noticed that if tethering via Windows DUN on Vendor ID 1 and AT&T that the device drops the BlackBerry connection and goes to 3G only? No emails or like will come in. Can't figure this one out.....
I am not sure about the first part. If you have the VVM files installed and proper service books, it will work - the vendor ID "lock" is only to get the proper cod files installed on the device.

Regarding your second para, I have a Bold that is Rogers branded but unlocked to work on AT&T and it still does that i.e. in Modem mode, it is off the Blackberry network. So again I am not sure if that behavior has anything to do with the vendor ID.
