I didn't even look at the phone before I bought it and now just a connect to itunes screen

It took me 15 hours to get mine activated. 14 hours and 57 minutes with a defective SIM and then 3 minutes with a new replacement SIM. It went right through in a matter of three minutes.

The amazing thing is that nothing works at all unless the phone is activated. If I could just use the time to sinc up all my apps and contacts, waiting for forever for activation wouldn't make me want to throw it out the window. There is a $50 "opening" fee if I attempt to return it I noted as well.
