Unlocked and want to update ROM, impossible combo?

Basically my phone is running "old" 1.5 firmware and it's UK orange, unlocked. I know I can update the phone with the Oranges firmware update, but what will happen when I do it, will the phone lock itself again to Orange, or?

I tried searching for the answer on these forums but didn't really find the correct answer so here I am.

And if it locks, what choices are there for me when it boils down to updating the phone?

Cheers.
