Can I use my iPhone without the sim card ?

Without Jailbreaking it or calling 112 ? I'm buying my friend's old 3GS and I want to know how to use it w/o the Sim Card.

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion, Early 2011 Version

Yes


Follow these steps to use your iPhone without a wireless service plan:

  1. Insert the SIM card from your new, activated iPhone or one that was previously used to activate the original iPhone.
  2. Connect the iPhone to iTunes on a computer connected to the Internet.

Once iTunes activates the device, you're free to use the iPhone as if it were an iPod touch.

Additional Information

Note: It may be necessary to repeat this process after updating or restoring the device.
