Contrary to the old saying ("Size isn't important") I think that you'd probably face a practical problem. Huawei devices require mini-SIMs:

(They're actually what most people think of as 'normal' SIM cards, 25mm x 15mm)
iPhone 4 and 4s models use micro-SD cards (15mm x 12mm)
iPhone 5 and later models use nano-SD cards (12.3mm x 8mm)

you'd need to use a Three SIM. So, to try what you're suggesting, you'd obviously need to use either an unlocked phone or a phone locked to Three for the registration process.
However, depending upon how the provider's system works, you might then end up with a 'data+calls+texts' account (for the phone), rather than the 'data only' type that you'd actually need (for the wifi device).
