You have to activate it first. Speak Out phones are no longer pre-activated.

Here's a copy and paste from the Speak Out site:

Activation

How do I activate my new SpeakOut Wireless Phone?

Simply follow the 4 Step instructions on your activation card, located inside your SpeakOut Wireless phone box. You'll also need your 7 digit activation code and 5 digit Store # that is printed on the blue "Welcome to SpeakOut Wireless" quick start guide.

Also, you usually get about at least $5 credit on new activations, which last 30 days. So no money is needed right away.
