You can only use another SIM card if your phone is unlocked from the O2 network. Otherwise only O2 Ireland SIM's will work in it.

A lot of Nokia, expcept for the latest high end models are pretty easy too unlock.
Try googling "unlock [phone model]" and see what you can find out about the phone before you buy it...O2 lock all their phones and won't unlock them for you until spend a significant amount on credit/contract calls.

If you buy the phone fon upgrade from o2 retail they can request the unlock phone as soon as its purchased.

Generally if its nokia you can get it onthe spot

Because the phone is yours, on contract there is no minimum spend all you need to do is call and request it, they can request the unlock for you
