I basically misunderstood the info I read when the iPad 3 came out. This is what I found about it:
"There is no GPS in the wifi only models as the GPS circuitry is contained within the 3G/4G chip. If you have a 3G/4G iPad then GPS functionality works regardless of activation of the 3G/4G service."
I did find a great link from Apple on Location Services, though!
