Does a Motorola Atrix need a sim card?

[DizzyDezzy]

I gave my dad my old Motorola Atrix to use as an iPod touch, of sorts. He doesn't have a sim card, but I thought he'd still be able to access the Internet if wifi was around.
I did a factory reset and my sad is saying his computer won't even recognize the phone when he plugs it in.
I'm just wondering if a sim card is needed to use an old phone for games, Internet access, calendar, music, etc.

It need a sim card to work as an iTouch. Usually, you can buy a blank one at AT&T. Sometimes they even give them out for free.

If you want to save things such as photos, music, games, etc. you will need the SD card
