I just called Verizon global a few hours ago and they unlocked my phone without any hassle. The guy was also quite nice. After I did so, I installed my T-Mobile sim and it worked without a hitch. I haven't tried to set up data, however, since my Tmob prepaid plan would make that rather expensive, so I'm fine without it.

At any rate, what's cool is I can switch back and forth between Verizon and T-Mobile without taking out my sim at all. All I have to do is go into phone settings and switch between GSM and CDMA and the phone does the rest. So basically, I can carry two phones in one (well, three, counting Skype). With call forwarding, this adds another insane but cool layer.

Since I have unlimited vzw to vzw minutes as well as unlimited tmob to tmob minutes, I can switch radios depending on whom I'd like to talk to. Also the tmob unlimited nights starts at 7pm instead of 9, as vzw does. Pretty spiffy.


Edit: I was also able to connect with the Vodafone sim I brought back that has my UK number on it (not the Vzw-Vodafone sim that comes with the Vzw TP2). Albeit it connected roaming through AT&T, it worked great.
