right so i got my new iphone but it is a hand me down so I have to wait a few weeks for it to be unlocked. So right now its an Ipod that is actually an iphone with no sim. I have set up my imessage and completed all the information but when I try to message people it just says not delivered. So I went on to settings and it keeps saying "waiting activation". can anyone help me set this up??
Thanks in advance

You may have to remove your iMessage information, reset, and do it again to get it to activate. My iPhone 4S (which I use as a test device) has no sim and is WiFi only, but I can do iMessages and Facetime on it.
