When a phone is advertised as having no sim or network locks, does

Australia, will it roam onto their GSM network here?

My handset is dying and all I want is a cheap handset to replace it. If
I buy a telstra prepaid handset (Nokie 2610),can I just put my current
telstra sim card in it and continue on? or do I need to unlock it from
pre-paid to my current telstra plan?

Can anyone help me with information to un lock a Motorola V171 currently
locked to Telstra
Telstra want $27.50 to do this for me!
Thanks

Is this for real?
Is it possible for a mobile to eavesdrop on its owner when it is not
turned on?
