Hypothetical "Updates" Question

Hey all,
So...got to see a Keyone up close today - absolutely beautiful. Also got to play with a store employee version for a few seconds (ironically it was owned by the Google rep lol). Love the device and will be getting. Being in Canada I am subject to the awful launch and non-availability of an unlocked version until "June" - which we all know, knowing how this launch went so far, that "June" means June 30. I don't want to wait that long.

The conundrum...I have a long ended now month to month contract with Bell that is too good to give up - meaning I don't plan on leaving Bell anytime soon. Thought...might as well just get the Bell carrier version - what does it really matter (in my situation). But then I remembered people talking about the pushed updates. So apparently Blackberry/TCL is going to push once a month updates, while carrier versions will have to rely on their carrier for updates. Anyone living in Canada knows what's THAT is like....

So...what if I buy my Keyone from Bell and unlock it - would I then have access to BB/TCL push updates or would they still come from Bell?

Besides being locked and potentially having carrier bloat ware and this update concern, are there any other differences?

it will come from Bell, most likely.

Still come from bell even if you unlocked it

Use a autoloader if you want them faster

Because of the Bell Sim, it would still come from Bell. ( I certainly could be wrong, but the autoloader situation was only a special case for the AT&T unlocked version sold through third party venders)

Pushed updates are terrible. I choose.

I believe the autoloader can be used on any version but stand to be corrected.
