Locked Blackberry

Does this apply to the Blackberry?

I was told that the Blackberry comes "harware locked" to OneTel, and cannot be unlocked. (I use 4 different SIMs for wherever I am, and a "locked"phone is useless to me)

I was told that the new Seimens "blackberry compatible" was "unlocked" but, trying the thing in a store in Bahrain, I found that having the body of the phone in the middle of the QWERTY keyboard made it a real pain to use.

Any ideas?
