Are there devs trying to unlock this tab?

its good and all the AiO tool, wich works like a charm, but i ( and not only me ) wants a unlocked bootloader so we can flash other roms, better roms faster and more stable, Anyone trying?

I think Condi is working on this, It would be really nice to see CWM on this

it's locked..
on sony's official site, there is a list shows devices that can unlock the bootloader, but tablet s is not on that list..
my 4.0.3 tablet s, can't be rooted, it's annoying!!

Why don't all Android manufactures unlock the bootloaders? That way devs can take the load off Sony software devs and cook up great roms to keep the plebs happy

.

Its a win win situation.

Because for all kinds of warranty and legal issues, someone like Sony would prefer to have a far greater control over what software their hardware is running and a locked bootloader is the first step to that.

Motorola are doing this, they sell "developer" devices, with the bootloader unlocked before you get the phone!
