True. I am actually mulling it over for my upcoming trip to Europe. Unfortunately I'm still on the ancient 3G, so I'm not sure how well it would handle being jailbroken (necessary in order to unlock, I believe). Apparently Rogers will do it for you for $50 or something if you have paid the subsidized portion of the phone off. I resent giving Rogers $50 for the privilege of using my device overseas, but $50 isn't really that bad when you consider that even answering a call in Europe could run you $3-4 a minute.
