It's DRM that stops users of the phone that may or may not be authorised users from doing stuff.

Think of it as a BIOS password on steroids.

DRM never worked, and never will. it's a fact of life, get over it.


It's not DRM. It's a BIOS password, which doesn't let you flash it without the password.

Without it, any employee/pervert that wants to drop a logger on your childs phone can do whatever they want to any Neo phone with a minute or so alone with it.

The key can as easily be supplied in a tamper-proof card with the phone, that has to be returned unopened to obtain an unbricking, otherwise you pay a small fee.
