Yeah, I was just worried that unlocking the phone would make it not work with AT&T or something and then I would be screwed. Looks like that is not the case

However, I have replaced my Bold 3 times, due to various problems, and gotten the warranty replacements; I am still under warranty, even now. I wonder if I sent an unlocked phone back to them, if they would whine about it and charge me the cost of a new phone? Probably not.

BUT, and this is a big BUT, if I use my free code to unlock now and then get a new phone via warranty, then I will have wasted an unlock code on a phone that is going into the trash, when it gets back to AT&T, probably.

So I guess the best answer is - don't unlock your phone until you are ready to:
a. travel abroad, or
b. sell the phone on 'Flea-Bay'
