I use a cellular hotspot device which costs me $35/mo. My iPad, iPhone, iPod & laptop can all connect to it at the same time. It saves me a lot of money by only having to have one data plan for all my devices instead of getting raped by a cellular provider that tries to sell you a separate plan for each device.

Do you already have to have a data plan for a cell phone or can you get a data plan just for the iPad? What does a typical data plan run?
