Member: 48886 Status: Offline Thanks Meter: 97 | Timing is very important for DM3 now. The closest DM3 unlock centre near me is Manchester UK (over 50 miles) so driving there on a daily basis isn't a realistic solution. Again, posting phones to DM3 isn't a realistic solution because the already high price is increased by postage costs so the price to the customer is increased. I know from years of experience that customers don't mind paying a high price for a quick service and this is where Nextgen comes in. Yes I agree that the cost to calculate unlock codes is still quite high with Nextgen, but compare the cost with the DM3 cost (including driving to a centre or posting phones) and there really isn't much of a difference in cost. After the initial flurry, Nextgen will do what they always do and reduce the cost thus making it a cheaper and easier solution than DM3. Now here is the big worry for DM3 - you look at the phone models supported by Nextgen (the others, not BB5) and you see that the majority can now be unlocked with free tools - how long before there are free tools for unlocking BB5? You know it will happen, it's pointless sitting there thinking it won't because it's inevitable. So, back to the timing issue. DM3 must now know that they have little time to produce a DM3 box for the masses. Still at this time they could ask a good price for DM3 box but if they leave it too late they will have a worthless solution no-one wants. I know DM3 probably don't care because they have already made huge amounts of revenue from DM3, but from a marketing point of view it would be madness not to milk the last remaining revenue from this solution. |

Member: 626414 Status: Offline Thanks Meter: 47 | The DM3 box has been used since the end of last year. The majority of unlocking/locking work done is for Corporate clients who provide large Qtys of handsets for Unlocking and most importantly Locking. Due to the large number of enquirys and where quantities permit, Service Centers have been set up to satisfy the market in certain areas over the last few weeks. The Corporate business is still being carried out by DM3 and will continue even if unlock codes become widely available and at a good price. A large proportion of the DM3 business is the locking of handsets to Networks. As DM3 is alone in this market I doubt the solution will be released as this would put them at risk of losing this type of work... Companies who have 1000 plus handsets can still be offered a better Service by DM3 than Unlock Code solutions due to the length of time and process of producing codes.

Member: 631393 Status: Offline Thanks Meter: 749 | @*********: I understand your argument. In my opinion, there is no sense in trying to sell a box. If a free code calc is around the corner, selling DM3 is not viable for these reasons: a) Not the cheapest of all products is able to compete with free. b) If everybody thinks a free calc will be released soon, nobody will pay a considerable investment for owning a DM3 box. If the free code calc is NOT available soon, selling DM3 is not interesting either: c) If we sell our box, sooner or later it will be cracked & copied. In consequence, it would be OURSELVES who support the creation of a free calc. The conclusion is obvious: DM3 for BB5 will not be sold, it will be obsoleted. When? Who knows. |

Also if their soltion is released BB5 unlocking will become a worthless business as proved in the past when solutions have been released. From my understanding of how BB5 works then a code calculator will be very difficult to do and one will not be seen in the near future. Anyone offering BB5 unlocking by code at the moment are using Nokia Servers or contacts within Networks to produce the codes and these holes will certainly be closed down like the UB solution was. | |
