Personally, I love my tp2 as is, I am kinda happy their isn't an unlocker so that I can actually use my phone instead of flashing new roms everyday like I did with the tp1.
Also, just my opinion, but I think they had this unlocker done maybe over a month ago but they are just hustling for the money now. I think they are experts and can probably crack these things in a day or two if they wanted. Maybe they purposely leaked false info about the release dates to get more interest and thus more money. Who knows if what I say is right or wrong, however, I wasn't born yesterday and I know the economy is doing bad.

3) DUDE YOU PURCHASED A 1ST GEN BB STORM, AND YOU ARE CALLING SOMEONE THICK HEADED*. LOL

Either release it or dont give dates on when it is going to be released. Another thing I don't like is the fact of this licensing situation. Yes, it is their right to restrict the use of their software as well as charge for it, but isn't this a website for users to come hack and mod their stuff without paying for it? At what point do we lose sight of what this website was created for. Soon we will be paying monthly to unlock our devices and when we do we will have advertisements posted everywhere. Aside from that these mods are out of control. How can you go around threating to ban people and delete peoples threads left and right. This is a community not a dictatorship. If someone wants to discuss something they have the right to do so without fearing that the mods are going to get mad. I feel like this site is going downhill. I am sure that we are losing loyal members everyday because of this. I did my best to help wideawake create this website because the same situation that is going on here was happening on su.com. I used su.com for a long time but the "forum drama" got out of control. We need to keep this site a place where people feel like they can trust each other. This unlocker is tearing everyone apart.
ps i am still anxiously awaiting the unlockers release!!!

For someone who does not know what that means why would they pay more for it? They would have no idea how to even put a new ROM on the phone so what would be the point?
Just trying to understand the real rational for this.....

People are just stupid.
Why do they sell the GSM stuff? You must donate. Something is off and I dont like what I see. Dont beleive me, look here:

To date there is no official word in the unlocker thread that this will not be a pay for. They charge for GSM. See it yourself.
