I've bought numerous imports/unlockeds & whenever there's an issue (i.e. Nokia phone breaks- again) I just just send it in as is. Sometimes the phone comes back locked again (new phone, new firmware) sometimes it hasn't.
While we certainly won't know till some one tries, I imagine that:
A) they won't look long enough to notice anything's different if you do decide to risk it.
B) it can't be too hard to do (firmware over-ride & all).
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
i'd be pretty nervous about having a $600 v1.0 anything (especially one that i carry around in my jeans pocket) without any warranty
