If I unlock a SE W810i for Cingular, what will change with the phone? Am I risking anything by unlocking it?

Thanks for any info you can give.

You don't risk anything by unlocking it. But if it is a cingular branded phone and you try to use it [unlocked] on TMobile you might find some of the features don't work correctly. Cingular specific applications won't work on TMobile and vice versa.

You can but that is normally harder for the average user to do.

Maybe the carriers would offer a a free flash when you take another phone to them?
