Worth unlocking T-Mobile G1

[aboca]

I ask to the people that own an unlocked T-Mobile G1 or the peolpe that know about it: is it worth it to unlock the G1?
Do you really lose the possibility to log in to gmail account and download the apps from the market?
And what about the net connections? When you unlock the device is it still capable to connect to the 3g, wifi and gsm networks?
Thank you very much!!!

If you want to use any other sim card/carrier you will have to unlock.
If you unlock you will be able to use other providers.
For using data services like gprs ... you need to activate.
Search the forum on how to active without having the T-Mobile Sim Card.

If you have t-mobile and dont plan on changing, there is no reason too.

Yes, it is worth to unlock a mobile in two cases, one is when you sell you mobile , another one in when you want to switch over to another carrier . i recently unlocked my G1 using the unlock code which i got from Classicunlocking . i unlocked it in the intention of selling it. because before unlocking, my phone was low estimated . after unlocking only , i was able to sell it for good price. so if you are in any of these to cases, you need to unlock it.
