My advice is don't bother, buy an IR dongle instead. The official cable is
ridiculously expensive, and will be obsolete the moment Nokia decides that
the pop port interface is old-hat. The aftermarket serial port data cables
are not compatible with Nokia's own software, and IMHO unreliable. IR on
the other hand will remain compatible with any handset that supports IR, and
any other devices (PDA's etc).

As far as unlocking goes, either use the freely available calculators, or
use a professional unlocker.
