Definitely a good idea to unlock if you travel out of town and want to use your phone in a different city or country without paying roaming charges,

I’ve unlocked a couple phones through http://www.BlackberryUnlockingOnline.com before,

Great service, very fast, and the price was cheap.

Also they gave me a discount when I unlocked my second phone.

Fido only carries the low end models off bb. We are forced to buy an unlockded cell phone from Rogers or GSM model from ebay.
The first step is to get back the blackberry service they took away last year and get a more reasonable data price plan.
The 2nd step is to go hunting on ebay for a good deal on an unlocked phone.

The next one that comes out is the flip, there will not be Curves or bold at least anytime soon because fido just rebranded itself to compete directly with Virgin/Solo/Koodo and wants the lower end phones.

its about time fido follows the trend of carrying blackberry instead of screwing their existing blackberry connect users with outragous rates. They better not discontinue this time if sales are slow. I do appreciate them finally following their parent company Rogers, but the mere fact that they took so long to do this and make us wait is idiotic on their behalf

Wow! I can’t even imagine being locked into a phone, already so rapidly aging for another 3 years… imagine the technology that will surpass all these people with circa 2006 original pearls (being released on a carrier in ‘09!!??) i mean come on fido! att got the pearl 8100 back in late 2006 when it was still cingular. people have had the pearl, renewed their contract, and already gotten a good chunk of their next contract through already

Yay! So RIM found somewhere they can offload obsolete hardware.
