Actually, iOS devices do not automatically connect to wifi until they are unlocked for the first time after a reboot - I'm not sure about the cellular networks.

They do connect to cellular networks, but will not do an automatic iCloud Backup unless they are a) on wifi and b) connected to power, so this method would not have worked.
