Was anyone really asking for an expensive device to come with a lock-in to a communications carrier?

If you want portability, buy the UK version that has HSDPA. Although it will be abit slower in the US (ATT's HSDPA is about 500kbps) and you will also lock to ATT (T-mobile will be using the 1700MHz band which LE1700 don't support) but you will be able to use it for the rest of the world.
