    Well, First let me tell you the 6 Models of the iPad and the Internet features on each. First Apple will sell the WIFI Only iPad’s and they will also sell WIFI + 3G iPad’s. The WIFI only iPad’s will require that you be in range to a network like at your home or a coffee shop. The WIFI + 3G iPad’s will let you have unlimited reach to the internet as long as you pay the PrePaid Data Plan of either $15.00 for limited usage or $29.00 for Unlimited Usage. Noticed that I said PrePaid Data Plan because AT&T will not require that you sign a 1 Year or 2 Year Contract which makes it very reasonable. If you want wireless for 1 month then just pay one month of service. If you choose to not use the wireless anymore and just stay at home you don’t pay an Early Termination Fee or a monthly charge. All you have to do is Activate and Deactivate the 3G on the iPad itself.
    The Models are the following:
    WIFI Only iPads:
    16GB – $499.99
    32GB – $599.99
    64GB – $699.99
    WIFI + 3G iPads:
    16GB – $629.99
    32GB – $729.99
    64GB – $829.99
    If you have any other questions feel free to contact me. Good Luck.

    It uses Wifi, unless you want to pay a ridiculous amount of money for 3G capabilities and then you need to pay for 3G service separately.
    A summary of the iPad:
    -It doesn’t have an SD card slot or USB slot. You want to load all your photos on it? You need to buy a special dongle and attach it to the iPad. Ah yes, that’s convenient and cost-effective.
    -You need to lay it flat and look straight down at it to type on it. It’s not like a netbook or laptop where the keyboard is flat and the screen is in front of your face.
    -You can buy a keyboard accessory — you can spend extra money to turn a low-power netbook-type tablet into a non-portable desktop computer. Meanwhile there are products like Lenovo U1 Hybrid where you can slip the tablet into a netbook shell and turn it into a portable, foldable laptop.
    -Apple wants to say it will be great for reading books and magazines, but it has a bright, glossy LCD screen. Meanwhile, electronic book reader devices use an electronic ink technology that doesn’t strain the eyes and can be used in the sun.
    -You cannot multitask. You can only do one task at a time. If you want to surf the web and type into a document, you can’t. You need to exit one and then open the other.
    -No flash support. Enjoy the web without much of its content!
    -It costs $500, minimum, and has a 1 ghz processor. You’re paying $500 for something that has about the same capabilities as an iPod Touch, but is huge. Products with similar specs and abilities as the iPad cost less than that. If you want the model with enough disk space and 3G to make it worth your while, it’s $800.
    My netbook has a 1.6 ghz Atom processor and cost me $200. And my netbook has an SD slot so I can make the hard drive space as large as I want. And my netbook has USB ports. And I can do multiple tasks on my netbook. Fact is, tablets have been around forever and the mainstream market didn’t want them.
    Just because they’ve slapped an Apple logo on it, should people suddenly want it?

    Wi-Fi restricts you to hotspots you’re near to.
    If you pay extra for 3G, then you can go anywhere you get coverage with AT&T.http://www.apple.com/ipad/pricing/
    There is the pricing scheme for the iPad. I will buy one.

    You need to be on a hot spot. Meaning only on areas where wi fi is available to make the internet work. http://mashgaming.com/apple-ipad-unveile…
