iPad. Verizon or At and T?

[PlatinumGuy]

So, I finally caved in. Am I getting the att version or verizon?

I need it to work well in Israel and Canada.

On first glance, Verizon has a suitable plan at $20/mo 2GB, whereas with ATT I'll need $30/mo 3GB. But At and T has much cheaper roaming plans (if I don't have patience for local sims).

I have heard at&t coverage is faster. Is this correct?

Are there frequency issues in Israel or other EU countries?

VZW won't work in the EU.

VZW won't work in the EU.

Are you sure?

This is what apple.com says

Both the ATT and Verizon model of iPad can roam worldwide on GSM/UMTS networks. In countries without compatible 4G LTE networks, the new iPad will operate on GSM network technologies such as HSPA+ and DC-HSDPA. When you travel internationally, you can use a micro-SIM card from a local carrier.

Well then I take that back
Generally VZW phones don't work in the EU.  I guess Apple sticks CDMA, LTE, and GSM radios in these puppies.

No wonder they run so hot!

Any ideas to get a case for less that the $40 Apple wants?

What store for 4x ?

[PlatinumGuy]

Apple. Problem is the ship to store is not working, even thu the rep said they have it in stock. So VZW is closer to me...

Sales tax from Apple ... (Also I see only 3x)

B and H, had in stock last week - No Tax, and they ship usually same day, and from NY-NJ its next day shipping.

I know another store that sells, no tax, But shipping will take a few days

Eve at AT&T's "affordable" rates you'll be paying hand over fist with limited usage.

I have an Android tablet ... But I do agree that the iPads are prices well.

Other tablets are more expensive and not necessarily offer better specs...

[PlatinumGuy]

I am no techie. I need fast, fun, interntet wherever I am. This is definitely the best device for me.

BTW you can even put an ATT sim in a VZW iPad and it should work if you put in correct settings.
