TotallyOz Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 I have an IPad and will be using it in LA for a month. Do I need to sign up for the ATT 1 month plan for IPads or T-Mobile Internet plan? Or, is there another plan that will give me fast service and unlimited bandwidth? Or, at least something that beats ATT's 2G plan? Thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FourAces Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 OZ I might be wrong but my understanding is that the iPad is locked to AT&T network. Even if it is not I believe the 3G band might not be accessible to other carriers frequency. If by chance you do have T-Mobile's 3G frequency on the device go with them. Just curious when will you begin your month in LA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TotallyOz Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share Posted September 16, 2010 No, it is not locked. I used it in Thailand with my Thai carrier. All you need to do is buy a Sim card, cut to the right size of the mini sim. Put in and go. I am going to test the ATT while I am in LA but will also test the tmobile later to see if faster. My month in LA started today. But, I checked into my hotel and the noise level and the slow Internet has caused me to rethink my decision. I may try another hotel today or I may fly away again. That may be jet lag talking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
