I got the prev version iPad (missed the new one by that much [Maxwell 
Smart reference]).  Decided to go with the Verizon option.  Note that 
any Wi-Fi + Cellular adds $130 to the cost over Wi-Fi only so if you 
don't think you need it or will use it you can save some money there.  I 
don't believe the T-Mobile option was available when I bought mine or I 
would have jumped on it.  They offer 200 MB a month for free which isn't 
much but I was mostly figuring on VOIP (about half a meg a minute, as I 
understand it) and light e-mail.  The Verizon $20 a month for 1 GB is 
more than I need.  If you get cellular I'd avoid streaming video or 
audio. I'm pretty sure it'll eat up you data cap.  Also, in terms of 
user support, Apple will give you a year of free telephone support and 
if you want two years you can shell out an extra $99 plus tax for 
AppleCare+.  I know you want in person support but I thought I'd mention 
the Apple deal anyway.


Anyone know whether I can switch the SIM to a T-Mobile one?
