When it dowloads it automatically unzips it without me doing anything.. then it turns into a folder called iPhone1,1_1
Ive attached screen grab.. the zip files you see arent available as i trashed the related folders. (it then reverts to displaying as a zip file again in DL's even tho the file isnt there)

There is something that goes wrong when downloading... It changes the extension to .zip.
To fix this, in Safari go to Safari>Preferences.
In the General tab, uncheck the "Open safe files after downloading" box.
Then download the firmware again.
And once it downloads, locate the file and change the extension to .ispw.
OR
For a simpler method, just put your iPhone into restore mode and click Restore without holding Option/Shift.
It will automatically download the 1.1.4 firmware straight to your phone, then just use iLiberty...
EDIT: Sorry, didn't realise you had worked it out...

Nah, don't worry about changing the sim. It don't make a difference. Just launch iLiberty now and unlock/jailbreak/activate.
Then try out your phone, to see if it calls and txts...
Then start installing apps via Installer. Have fun. Congrats on taking the plunge and becoming a real modder.

Hmm, that's beginning to sound scary. Try resetting your network settings again and then if that doesn't work then there maybe be something wrong with your baseband... :S
