I am reaching out to all of you to get help with the purchase of an ipad for my husband. I have read internet blogs, dealt with Best Buy and I still am not getting some straight answers. Thank you advance for your assistance:
Here are his specs:
-He has a MiFi device
-He has a Verizon Droid (with 3G of course)
-He is in his car for his job (all day) so often times he can't find a wifi hotspot
-He has told me that he needs 32gb - so this much I know.
My questions:
1. Do I need to spend the extra $$$ and get an iPad with 3G or not?
2. I understand he can use his phone/MiFi and a 3G iPad wouldn't be necessary, if that's the case, is the connection speed really slow or are there any other limitations he'd face?
3. What are the battery limitations if I do go this route?
4. If I chose the 3G model, that makes his MiFi obsolete, correct - or does he need some kind of data plan?
5. I have heard the terms tethering and jailbreak, can you explain?
THANKS!
