It is not necessary to buy the cellular capable model unless you use it in a work environment where you may not have access to WiFi. You also have the option to turn you iPhone into a hotspot and connect the iPad via Bluetooth or WiFi to your phone to access the internet via cellular service.

No you have to buy it with the iPad, when purchase. Yes, take the iPad to Verizon , and they will put a sims card in for you! You can have the service turn on, but mostly every where you go, there is free WiFi, so unless you are going out of the country then you would need that service! Hope I answer your question!

You can use it over Wi-Fi regardless which one you get, but not all are not capable with Verizon 4G or 3G depending on your area. The difference is the hardware. In order to get one that can use wireless service, you should buy one from Verizon despite they are more expensive. Check out Radio Hospital Lima, Ohio and call them. Google it. They just might be able to hook you up with one for $250. They have only 2, but nobody is really looking at them. Tablets don't sell in the area that fast. This is as of 6/24/2013.

It means that the iPad also comes with 4G capability pre-loaded with Sprint. I opted for WiFi only and saved $100. When I am away from a good WiFi signal, I use my iPhone as a personal WiFi hotspot.

You can use just your wifi, which is what we use. It is a great ipad, our second, and my husband uses it daily!

I purchased the model that is NOT connected to verizon, or any other phone company, but CAN connect to the web. So I use my home WiFi to access the web to use it. Others purchase the Verizon connected so that whereber you are, you can connect to the web. But my plan is to eventually get an iPhone, which will allow me to use whatever phone company I use for my iPhone to work as a mobile router -- that way I won;t be paying for 2 web-access fees, just the one I would anyway for a mobile phone.Hope that helps.

Hello. If you will need to get on the Web away from your wireless (whether that be at home or work), then yes, you will need to add it to your Verizon service. For us, we didn't have to, since everywhere we go, we can connect to wireless Internet. You can also purchase a plug in adapter that fits into any standard wall outlet and get WIFI without having to purchase extra WIFI service through Verizon. We have one that I bought here on Amazon, and that seems to work well. Hope this helps. Try a universal WI-FI repeater and extender search on Amazon if you don't wan't/need to purchase extra service. It may be less expensive for you.

No, this is A Wi-Fi only version of the ipad. I assume you would have to get the version that's 3G compatible and carrier specific to have that option.

As I recall, its only 3g unless attched to another source for 4g support, so this could cost money. I think, beyond buying it, your other cost will be how much data you choose to use. I did get Verizon to come out and check my existing signal after a year.

Yes, IF your Verizon wireless is available as WiFi. So if the Wireless comes in your house to your Verizon Wireless (WiFi) Router, then yes. If you just have a Verizon cell phone, then no. Unless you use your cell phone as a WiFi hotspot, then yes. You need WiFi.

The Apple IPad mini is sold with both capabilities. If all you want to do is run it off a wireless router, then buy the IPad with just the WiFi as it will cost less. I have a data plan with AT&T; that costs me $10 a month. And it works with my wireless router at home or away just great too.

The wifi version is not cellular capable. You will need to make sure you order the 4G version. It will cost significantly more and you will obviously have to have a data package through your cellular provider in order for it to work on cellular.

Not a lot. One is a wifi only tablet while the other two models are verizan tablets that can get wifi and 3g or 4g service through verizan. So there is the wifi model, 3g model, and 4g model

It should work automatically with your wifi. If your iPad says Wifi + 4g then you need to contact your phone provider to have them establish the 4g service which will allow you to use the device in locations other than those which have wifi access.

you will only pay a fee i you elect to use the 4G carrier/cellular. I have two there iPads and have never used the cellular on them, hence no fee. if you will not there is really no point in paying the extra for that ability, I am not sure if it would be better for resale later or not but I doubt it.

Yes but you would need a 4G LTE Internet account and device with Verizon. This device is a 3G modem. Verizon will not add a new 3G modem. Unless you have an existing 3G internet account this device will not help you. Hope this helps.
