You don't need to have a data plan. You just have to setup an Internet
connection - through your telephony provider or through WiFi. For the
first one you need a data plan, for the second you have to use "adb
shell" from SDK, to run a setup for WiFi connection. When you log on
to a shell, you have type "am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n
com.android.settings/.Settings". This will show you connection
options. Save it and you can now register to your Google account.
