If it's a 3G through Rogers just use iTunes to activate it.

[desm0nd]

what is the tracking reference on the package?
cell phone number ?

Um..
Well basically I ordered it Friday night and it came Monday at 4..
I missed it as I was at work.. So I changed the address to my work address and got it Tuesday..

I am at work and tried to plug it in but nothing came up, I guess I will wait till 5 and do it on my laptop at home..

You might have problems syncing later on if you activate it from your work computer. I would wait until you get home to do it. Make sure you update to latest version of iTunes first...I think it's 7.7

Same thing here, was at work, changed address to work, just got it now. Plugged it into power to charge and it's saying
"No SIM card installed
Insert an unlocked and valid SIM to activate iPhone"

Ya, I was thinking that it wasnt a good idea to do it from work.

I will wait till I get home..

Also, the sim card that comes with it? Do I just use my other sim card?

thanks

[wazabi]

The sim card that comes with it has to be activated if you have an existing one. Call Fido and give them the 20 digit on the sim card. I'm getting mine activated right now. You can eject the sim card by using the little metal tool that came with it and pushing into the little hole next to the audio jack.

wazabi: It came by UPS for me.. they left a UPS infonotice on my mailbox since I was not at home to sign for it. Mine was also shipped on Friday.

I ordered mine yesterday noon, how do I find out about my tracking number?

why do you need to activate it? cant you jus use your old one? i dont get the difference?
