Yes you can, just leave your sim in there and use the wifi and you can use all the features just except the calling part unless you can emerceny number which is 911,

alright cool so i dont need to have the sim in their to use cydia right? i basically want to use my 1st gen as a "jailbroken ipod".

[Broomhead]

correct... It will be like a iTouch

[nighthawk283]

Yes just like a ipod touch there no such thing as a itouch, but ipod touch yes so enjoy your iphone/ipod touch. (Also you may use VOIP on it)

Yes you may, but read what the information about the new pwnage say about jailbreaking and you should be good

Is it going to possible to jailbreak an inactive iPhone? I got my 3GS before I upgraded my 2G to 3.0 and now I am afraid to hook it up to my computer. I fear it will see the inactive Sim card and lock the unit out (I have used it as a Touch with WiFi around the house, but would like to put new apps and update to current firmware. Is this possible? Where do I need to look for instructions? What software do I need to buy?

Sorry for being so clueless
