Huge news for Motorola fans today. The Photon 4G’s bootloader has just been unlocked, and everyone is still celebrating. We are expecting not too many people here actually own a Photon (since we usually only cover Verizon related phones), but what this could possibly mean, is that the DROID3, and even the Bionic have a chance of an unlocking. All these devices are different, but we definitely have our fingers crossed.

Positive, I think. For those of us on Big Red, if the Bionic as an unlocked bootloader shortly after its release, will you forsake the SGS2 in its limbo state, and buy the Moto?
