The only way to use the device for anything is to first activate it. Activation requires a SIM, but it doesn't have to be an active one. See this support document. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3406

Like I said, it doesn't have to be an active card, as long as it is one for the carrier the device may be locked to. The support document that I sent, and the link that AnaMusic provided will explain those things to you.
