Re: [iPad] Gps/3G

 

I suspect this is a pretty elementary question, BUT here goes:
Is a data plan required to use the GPS functions on a  3G enabled iPad?

No, not to use the GPS.

That said, *some* (but not all) mapping apps have to download map data to *display* your location correctly.

(Some mapping apps contain their maps within their huge (e.g., 1.4 GB) data footprint.)
(And some apps use GPS location without having to map it.)
