This is a stupid question but I'm asking anyway.

TMO 5s... To activate this phone, I just connect to iTunes and follow directions, right? Store said it came with SIM card.

Easy as 1-2-3??

you actually need to get tmobile service. Call Tmobile and give them the SIM card number, which is actually the ICCID number printed on the box. you could go to a tmobile store, but why bother.
 
Received my 5s earlier all i did was called tmobile give them the number in the back of the nano sim then voila! I was using the nokia lumia 521 while I was waiting for the 5s. which use a micro sim.
 
I just popped my nano sim (which was in my 5) in there and it worked.
 
i received mine in the mail. walked into tmobile store, guy asked me a few questions, used his magic wand beep while it was still sealed in the box... he said thats it, activated.:D

im using it now as a hotspot on my computer. Awesome LTE speed!
