Hi and welcome to the Forum!

Not sure on whether you want to share the iPads connection through your 3G with your laptop or visa versa. It's not possible to share the iPads connection but you can connect to the laptops connection but I have only heard of this for Windows 7 but have a look at this link. I hope others will chime in here.

Wow, I didn't realize that Windows 7 had this capability. Thanks, Leelai for the tidbit!

Oh oh, but....

I believe once you published this info in a Public arena you waived those rights!
