Any way you slice it this is a big deal. Google has made the G1 phone available unlocked for developers. It is unlocked in the traditional since in that it will work with any carrier (with a compatible network) but also in the since that the bootloader for the phone does not require signed images. What this means is that you could customize Android and easily use it on your phone. There are really no requirements to be a developer. You have to pay $25 to sign up and $399 for the phone.
