CDMA Touch Pro 2 Unlocked. Let the Custom ROMs Begin!
WMExperts
Well, many frayed nerves and hours hunched over one of the most popular Windows phones has finally paid off: The "unlocker" which we mentioned a few days ago has been completed, meaning users can now install custom ROMs to their beloved Touch Pro 2s, specifically Verizon, Sprint, U.S. Cellular and all other CDMA versions.
At least for Sprint, it sure beats waiting till "early 2010", eh?
Having this tool now, all the custom ROMs which are literally waiting in the wings (e.g. Energy, Mighty, CFay, Juicy, etc.) can be installed — this includes WM6.5 and WM6.5.1 builds with all that custom goodness from your favorite ‘Chefs’.
A big congrats to everyone for this achievement (donations are in order) and now if you pardon us, we’re off for some ROM flashing ourselves! …
Go HERE to grab the HardSPL! Here for the SIM Unlock and here for support.

Anyway, here’s some more HD2 goodness for ya. [Digital.ru via wmpoweruser]

Google Voice has 1.4 million users
WMExperts
Just how popular is Google Voice, you ask? In its reply to federal regulators over the Apple-AT&T-Google Voice flap, Google stated it has 1.419 million Google Voice users, and about 570,000 of them are using it full-time, seven days a week.
As an interesting side note, BusinessWeek apparently gleaned the number of Google Voice users from a PDF that was impropertly formatted, desipte the number of users appearing to be redacted. Oops. (So not to be confused, we′re talking the number of users, not users’ numbers.)
Also noted is that Google Voice may eventually go global (it’s still only available in the U.S.).
