Unlocking means you will not be locked to your current provider, meaning you
will be able to use that cell on, let's say a competators network, or even
over-seas since it is a quadband cell. If you plan to just use it with the
provider you bought it from, there is little point getting it unlocked.
Which provider do you use? I would think the V220 didn't come locked in the
first place.

Re: I have a Motorola V220.... What does it mean to "unlock" a phone?
Thanks for the response.
I use cingular right now. I've used them for the last 4 years or so.
I find it strange that the V220 has a USB type connector, but no
software to support it. I have a USB cable from my iRiver MP3 player
that connects, but I can't seem to find Windows XP drivers or other
software :-(
Any thoughts?
