I'm not sure if Hong Kong is lucky enough to be chosen as the first launch district in China, but the discussion of N900 has begun in China since last year (ref. http://bbs.maemochina.net/thread-htm...0-page-16.html)

According to ZogG the sim locking might be caused by firmware downgrade. Actually I'm not sure if 10.2010.12-9 is the PR1.2, which I'd really like to know.

The only thing I can confirm is that flashing it with the 'stock' firmware downloaded from http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N900.php will brick the phone. Those who bought the stock N900 in Hong Kong must really take caution of it, and following ZogG's advise to read the related posts carefully.
