IPhone 5 set-up without laptop?

My mum has just ordered an iPhone 5. She does not have a laptop. When I got my own 5 it said 'connect to iTunes', and eventually I had to set it up from a cloud with my old 3GS. Having had no previous iPhone, could my mum's 5 be set up without having to connect to iTunes? Any help would be very much appreciated.

I'm sorry but they're designed so you have to set them up on a computer. Maybe at a friends house or a library?

Its a apple product… Connection to itunes is MANDATORY!

"She does not have a laptop"

Apple devices work just fine with any computer, not just laptops.

Yes, all iPhones are completely wire-free in setup. You can just run through the on-screen setup process, choose "Set Up As New iPhone," and she can be on her way. A computer hasn't been mandatory since iOS 4, two years ago. I've never seen a 5 say "Connect to iTunes."
