Ah, Future Publishing. I had a huge stack of Amiga Format magazines a few years ago that I dumped due to serious lack of space. That was a well-produced magazine if ever I saw one.

It has the best healthcare money can buy because you all pay through the frigging nose for it. Medical insurance over there is a joke- you're insured? Hokai, time to double (if not triple) the price- no worries, you're not paying for it, right?

My Legend had a locked bootloader, so did my Sensation. Emphasis on past tense, because you can unlock them quite easily with some help from XDA Devs. My Sensation was literally; "run batch file, wait 3 minutes and watch it reboot a few times, check bootloader: S-OFF. Done."
