i dont think so... i think you can use 2.5g sims in 3g phones but not the other way round...

Right; For info!
If your 3G phone runs out of juice the SIM can be used in other phones.
I just tried it for the exact reason.

You can use a 3G sim in a 2G phone except on 3UK as they block it to prevent people roaming on O2s 2G network because it costs them more money.

A generic or unlocked/branded phone should work on ANY network. Thatīs one of the major points of buying generic/vs Locked/branded phone IMO
EDIT: Make that THE point...
The much nicer user interface and ability to use the phone to itīs true potential is the other point.
