I am currently on ATT and use an iPhone 5 and a Nexus 4 device interchangeably. However I am interested in getting the Nokia Lumia 520 GoPhone from ATT.
Questions:
1. Is the GoPhone Lumia 520 locked to the ATT network? If so, it won't work if I go overseas and pop in a local SIM card?
2. If I take out my current ATT SIM card from my iPhone and put it in the Nokia 520, will it just work?
3. If the GoPhone Lumia 520 is locked to ATT, what do I need to do to get it unlocked?
TIA!

I just found this on BestBuy: AT&T - Nokia Lumia 520 4G No-Contract Mobile Phone - Black

So there are two types of Lumia 520 phones that work on AT&T? A locked GoPhone version and an unlocked version (from the BestBuy link)? Why would anyone buy a locked version if you can get an unlocked one for the same price? What is the difference between the two phones?
