Hey all, I'm a ipad newbie. I'm going to get one as a gift and I am a little confused about the two choices with the ipad 3.
The WiFi version is obviously self-explanatory. My confusion is with the cellular version. I see it's more money. Does that mean when the ipad 3 is bought, I will be connected to 3G/4G for as long as I have it? Or do you have to pay a monthly fee on top of that to stay connected to 3G/4G similar to how a smart phone is connected 3G/4G?
In other words, is the extra $130 a one time purchase to be connected to 3G/4G, or does it just buy me the right to have access to 3G/4G when I am willing to pay it every month?
Thanks for any clarifications you guys can provide.
