Not sure what O2's branding is like. But VODA and Orange make the phone's look crappy by plastering their badges and custom menus all over the phone. And in the case of the N95 remove features of the phone!
If O2 have restricted the phone in any way it will remove the restrictions, and it will also give you access to the latest and origional Nokia FW's for your handset as and when they are released
Don't forget to backup any contacts etc you have on the phone before you upgrade it.

Using a micro wave oven used to be a good way for insurance claims, but they have cottened onto it now as so many peeps was doing it.
Your best bet would prolly be to go to the police station and say it was either stolen or has fell out of your pocket on a night out. Get a crime reference number and pass it onto your isurance company and they should pay out
Just make sure you never put a sim card in it, or allow it access to any network again once you have though

v10.0.018 is the highest a branded one will go, but if you unbrand it, it goes to 11.0.026
