hi i am going to purchase and iphone from ebay
there are hundreds listed and i have a few qs
i am currently 6 months into an 18month contract with o2 so do i need an unlocked iphone or if i bought a not unlocked one could i just put the sim card in and it would work

is it right to assume then when you buy the iphone in an 02 store it is registered to the sim and that sim only

also there are a lot of 1.1.2 firmware iphones on ebay that are unlocked will they be able to be updated to the new 1.1.3 software that will be coming out or will that brick them aswell

hope ive been clear enough
