There aren't multiple versions of 2.1. You just have to make sure it has never been updated to firmware 2.2 because the unlock coming out on new years is not compatible with that version. After you buy it make sure you don't update it.

You will need to have a jailbroken 2.1 iPhone 3G and he unlock will be an available download on Cydia.
