Well, as I understand it, when I bought it, it's a phone which was purchased at 
a Voda shop and shows it is, but is unlocked to all networks.  I think, as I 
understand it, the updating of the Nokia firmware is not quite the same thing 
as actually being able to use any network for calls.

I'm wading my way through this one!  ...
