Thank you Carl for this excellent explanation.

The truth about the iPad or iPad 2 is that it much better with an Internet service than it is without one. So it is natural that one would inquire about the Internet options that are available for the iPad owners. Many of the great apps like Safari, Email, Pandora, Netflix and so many more rely on having a connection to the Internet to get their content. Even to download apps from the App store, you must have access to the Internet (from the iPad or desktop that you sync the iPad to). The iPad comes in different models; most have different storage capacity, but each device regardless of storage capacity comes in both a Wi-Fi only model and a Wi-Fi and 3G model.
You inspired me to write an article on this matter to help the newbies.http://www.iamthereforeipad.com/2011/03/internet-options-for-wi-fi-ipad-and-3g.html
