STRANGE BUT TRUE!
I've been a Treo user since the 270. Recently my T-Mobile Treo 600 developed a problem; the receiver speaker quit working. My wife works for a Cingular rep, and she was able to get me a couple of 650's that had been returned. Both of those units had problems, so they came up with a new Treo 600. Unfortunately, when I slipped my T-Mobile SIM card in, the phone displayed the typical locked SIM message because it was a Cingular branded phone.
I called T-Mobile and they were very helpful. They emailed the official unlock code to me along with instructions. I began by HotSync'ing the Treo to my PC. The new Treo picked up everything from my old one.
I then put my T-Mobile SIM into the new Treo, and to my amazement, the phone was completely operational. I did not have to enter the unlock code!
I'm hanging on to the code just in case, but everything is working fine without it.
