Not long after Microsoft released its Windows Phone 7 platform, a "jailbreak" was released in the form of ChevronWP7. This tool made it easy to unlock any Windows Phone 7 smartphone, and then side-load applications that are not available in Microsoft's app marketplace. With an upcoming update, though, this phone unlocking will be disabled, and as the developers have ceased development, there's going to be no quick work-around.
