muse: I was under the impression that unlocking the bootloader was vendor dependent. If you do you research and find a vendor that ships with an unlocked bootloader or provides a service to unlock your bootloader, you're in good shape. Since there is a multitude of Android devices out there, it's also a good idea to verify that there is a working recovery and firmware before making the purchase. (For most popular devices, there will be. For the less popular devices, you'll either have to spend a great deal of time developing your own solution or have to deal with potential bugs.)

That is what I said if you read my reply.
Almost all manufacturers provides the service to unlock the bootloader nowadays. Unlockable bootloaders are a thing of the past.
As for the reader, do you mean breaking or bricking?
