Hi, If you leave it sitting at the setup screen for long enough, it speaks instructions for turning on vo - it doesn't turn it on automaticly, but it assumes that the user has a sight problem and that you can't read the screen so you will need the oppertunity to turn on speech.
To answer your other questions: it doesn't have to be linked with your Apple ID although more functionality is available if you do so and yes, every now and again it does receive firmware updates. For example, the latest one drasticly decreased the quality of the UK English voice, to the point where I have had to switch to US English because the UK voice has for me become unbareable. Cheers, Ben.
