    Once you've entered the PIN, you need to connect it to iTunes to activate it.

    Tried that and got this message...

    The Sim Card inserted in this iphone is PIN locked.

    Please enter the PIN code of your SIM card and connect to itunes again.

    I have done this and got the exact same thing.

    sounds like you simply not entering your pin code.
    what happens after you enter your 4 digit pin?

    Insert into activated device, turn pin code request off, insert into iPhone 4, activate & play.
