Hi mary, I think this depends on where you get it from on the planet,
You do have to put a sim card in an iPhone to get it up and running otherwise it tells you that there is no sim card and spits the dummy. However once you have it up and running you can take the sim out and use the phone for other things but it will still tell you that the sim is missing Unlike android devices which don't really care so long as they havea wifi connection they can get data on. -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Mary Otten Sent: Monday, 25 July 2016 1:56 PM To: viph...@googlegroups.com; macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Purchasing an iPhone and not having a Sim card I recall seeing somewhere that if you buy an iPhone, such as an iPhone SE, and you don't get a carriers Sim card to go with it, you can't use it. Is that true? I have an android phone that I never had a Sim card for, and it has worked just fine as a tablet more or less. I would like to use an iPhone se as an iPod. Is that possible?
