How to activate Iphone 2/3g without sim or jailbreak?

My cousin gave me her old Iphone and I want to activate it but she does no have the sim card. Right now I'm using the glitch that lets me go to the homescreen but that's getting annoying and I also want upgrade to ios 6. What can I do?

You need a SIM at least. If you want to use it as a phone, or the data network, you need a phone/data plan as well.

You can't get iOS6 on that hardware, it is too old. 4.something is best you can do I think. If you want iOS6, you need a much newer phone.
