It sounds harder than it really was, you just need to be confident while doing the steps.

Yeah, that's the version of unlocker I'm using. I think you're right, I'm missing the step where you disable USB or pull it out / put it back in. Now that I think back to 2 years ago when I first did this to my old phone, I remember disabling USB in activesync (this was 2007). Now I can't remember exactly when you disable USB / pull plug out and in. The description in the unlocker thread is very vague:
"At one point you need to disconect and reconnect. At this point it will look like it's flashing a rom (standard rom update utility). Let that complete. Finally you will need to disable USB in activesync for the exitbl step. "
The specific dialog where you need to do the usb thing would help =/

Same thing that I thought, 2 GB or less. Perhaps it's only certain 2 GB cards that work, because my 2GB card just stays on "loading..." Stinks!
Thanks for the tips, I think you're right about the USB thing, just have to figure out exactly when to do it.
