unlocking your cell phone basically means that it is no longer restricted to a particular carrier.

so for instance, if you bought your nokia cell from AT&T and wanted to switch to T-Mobile, you could do so if you had an unlocked phone. otherwise, you'd have to buy a new phone from T-Mobile.

Is this only for Nokia, or does it work for other brands?

They do have access Nash, but it's just that some companies lock their phones (it's called 'sim locked' here) so that they can keep their customers.
