Can you activate an unlocked iphone 4S abroad?

I live in holland ; but for christmas im getting an unlocked iphone 4S, but im going to recieve it in San Francisco at my grandfathers house. If i buy a micro-SIM here in holland (Vodafone NL) can i use that micro sim to activate my new iphone in the USA? Or will it want a SIM from a local carrier, ie AT&T/Verizon?
Added (1). Ok if i can activate it with a vodafone SIM, great, but can i turn off roaming/ put it in airplane mode to use it as an itouch only until i get back to holland?
