Ipad stuck on connect to itunes

[jelley1217]

Just opened my brand new iPad and it won't start up. It has the iTunes logo and the cord on the screen but won't do anything. I tried to plug into my Pc but it says that this device will not because it cannot detect a mobile carrier??? Help if you can, I want to use my Christmas present.
