Hi, I'm new to the whole cell phone scene (I own one but its not very good). I've done some research and I decided to go with a SE T610. I've seen a few threads on Unlocking and flashing the bios(I think). I was just woundering if anyone could point in the right direction on finding the advantages to unlocking my phone and some of the others things I can do to get the most out of it.

Also I'm going to be moving to the UK (I live in Canada now) in a few months and was woundering what kind of "tweaks" I would have to do in order to get it to work over there (Things like SMS and stuff)?
