Q: "Activitation request could not be completed"  (my previous, erased phone)

After buying a new iPhone I intended to set my old one up for my son.  After erasing all content according to apples instructions I get this message trying to set it up;

"Activitation request could not be completed"

 

What is the problem and how do I solve it?

iPhone 3GS, iOS 5.1.1
