You do not require a steam copy of bf2. Any legal version of BF2(steam,origin,cd,...) will do.

Most PR public servers indeed require you to have a valid cd key yes.

Check Amazon.com
You can get a new disc copy for under $20 bucks (which includes your CD key)
Playing with someone else's key is a bad idea - do not do that. It's very badbad.

You need a legit key to play on most servers - end of story.
Using a shared key is a bad idea because you will eventually be linked to a hacker and not only will the key be banned, you will lose any credibility within the community.
How you obtain a legit key is up to you - try amazon, steam, or origin.
Any further discussion about non legit software and the thread will be locked.

The learning curve is very steep. Don't give up after the first day/week

I believe it allows people to chat with their steam friends without minimizing the game.

Then maybe there is a fix somehow from steam side... (or tell the steam-support to make the overlay work in BF2 or is it working in vBF2 ?? )

IIRC, it's Punkbuster for BF2 that is the issue with Steam overlay. There's no chance of anything being done by DICE/EA/Punkbuster to fix that.
