OK. Was running GAOSP. Decided to go for unlocking to get the market.

Flashed Brazilian baseband using Odin ( .tar in the PDA section )
That's as far as I got. Seemed to flash successfully, but now stuck on Samusung logo.

So if I am having this kind of luck, can someone hand hold me through the rest of this ??

Forgot to add. After apparently successful flash, phone re-boots and I can see "recovery mode" in small letters, but it just seems to hang there.
 
I am interested in knowing how you made out with FastGSM. It wouldn't work no matter what I tried. Even their customer support couldn't help me. They ended up refunding my money. I ended up going to Bell. I have the Brazilian baseband on and after that the GAOSP worked perfectly. Market, account sync, the works. I am considering the $75 an investment in that it will make my phone more saleable when I go to sell it. Hope it works.
