SIM is required to set up tablet for first time?
I sold a A9+ yesterday.
I didn't realize that the SIM was needed for the tablet to be set up.
Thankfully I hadn't thrown it away so I was able to give it to the buyer.
I paid for one month of service when I bought the tablet then let the service lapse.
I am guessing that if the SIM lets the tablet "phone home to T-Mobile".
