Verizon Wireless has officially announced they will be rolling out Apple iPads with WiFi only October 28, 2010. Did you see that coming? Consumers will be able to connect through wifi just about anywhere with the MiFi Mobile Hot Spot bundled in the offers. Bundled pricing for the devices with MiFi include: $629.99 for 16GB, $729.99 for 32GB and $829.99 for 64 GB. Verizon has only announced one plan which gives consumers the freedom of a month-to-month, no obligation data plan, starting at $20.00 for 1GB.
As of now we do not know if/what other plans will be available but when we find out we will be glad to let you all know. What do you think about this iPad? Did you expect them to release it? Would you rather it be on 3G? Let us hear your thoughts.
