Changing the device IMEI could be seen as network hacking which is a
bad thing
and indeed could you in trouble.
As a side note, the network takes into accord the device make/model for some behavioural changes. This is determined by the IMEI, so if you change it to disguise your N900 to look like an iPhone for example, you will not get optimal cellular service and you will place extra load on the network elements.
