I believe it costs $7.99 to unlock a BB.

I'm not sure about a Wind phone working on the Rogers network though. Don't they use different frequencies?

Wind runs UMTS AWS1700/2100. Wind Blackberry 9900 only does UMTS 1700/2100. Even if you unlock the phone the frequencies will not match. I believe with Rogers you'll be losing both of your data bands. Rogers uses 850/1900 so you won't have 3G data. Phone will work properly, data won't.
