Easy fix, I'm guessing you don't know, so now ya do.  |

I have a question. I am thinking of getting unlocked Storm2. Once I get it and update the software to the newest official would that lock the device back up. Not in the mood to pay 700 bucks then have a phone of no use.
Thanks in advance for the help

Thanks in advance for the help | Device software updates have no effect on SIM lock status. Once it's unlocked, changing the OS version won't affect it

Also is the Storm 2 able to achieve 3G on Tmo network or EDGE only like the iPhone.
this is the only other thing I need to know before I make final decision between 9700 and 9550
Thanks!

Unfortunately, I doubt you'll see any global device that works with T-Mobile's 3G, unless T-Mobile releases it themselves. They chose the 1700 MHz band because it was reliable and unclogged. The downside to that is that you MUST have a T-Mobile 3G capable device, because they're the only ones on the frequency so far.

Good thing I saw this thread. I'm thinking of getting an unlocked Storm from someone at work and I'll need help setting up if I get it. I am concerned whether it would work or not. From a scale of 1 - 10, how hard is it to configure for TMO? Thanks.

1=Impossible
10=Throw SIM card in and go
I would rate it a an 8, only because you do have to play with the OS, and ensure the service books are there. But it isn't hard. Blackberry Review: TMobile Storm SMS, Browser, and Service Books
There is more info on my blog. Some times it hard for new folks to find stuff in the forums. Don't get discouraged
