Just sold my recent new one on eBay to make room for a new 2.
It was gifted and only 16G with no 3G.
I have already taken up almost 14G of space and don't have half of what I would like on it.
So took a slight $100 loss and recovered 80% of the retail price, pre tax.
I'll take it.
Plenty of them on eBay. Just shop from a reputable source.

Once you have one, you are addicted.

As long as there are at least two available; otherwise you and I will be fighting over it

You do know that AT&T is going to allow for wifi hotspot with your iPhone in the new iOS4.3 update? Then there is no need for 3G iPad. Wifey is getting my iPad 1.0 when 2.0 hits the streets.

Are you saying they will allow tethering?

Crap, that makes me happy that I downgraded my unlimited bandwidth when I bought the latest iPhone... I didn't think they would ever bow to the pressures of allowing tethering

SERIOUS???

Just saved me $100.
Thanks.

BTW, 3/7 is still on.

If you have a jailbroken iPhone, you can tether your iPad already.... free of a monthly charge etc etc.

Echo tethers hers to her phone using MyWi

Tony,
Just got this from the web.
Any Current iPhone customer will qualify for the $20/month Tethering option by switching to a new $25/month 2GB plan from the current $30/month unlimited data plan. So if you don’t want tethering, you can keep $30/month for unlimited data but in order to get tethering your data plan rate will increase to $45/month ($25 + $20) with a 2GB data cap.

Not sure they are doing me any favors as I currently am grandfathered into the unlimited and this seems like a lure to get you out of it.
I think I rather have the 3G seperately for the iPad but need to better digest it and see what happens in the near future as it is released.

Sauer Grapes · 02-23-2011, 10:24 AM

Plus tethering through AT&T will be costly if you do it without it being unlocked and using wifi.

CigarNut · 02-23-2011, 11:28 AM

Not sure I want to give up my grandfathered unlimited data plan. I just wish I could add my iPad to my existing account so that I could get that plan for the iPad as well...
