Im sure this has been asked, and i doubt this can officially be answered. But since the iPhone 4 uses a micro sim would i be able to just pop it in my ipad and do a quick settings change and yay free internet on my ipad. I did this with my current 3GS sim i cut it and put it in my ipad did a settings change. so would att be able to like "lock" the sim or somehow monitor if i put it in my ipad. thanks for taking the time and thanks in advanced.
Got a tip for us?

I was wondering this myself.
Maybe you can use your existing sim on the new iPhone 4 when it comes out.
Can't you call AT&T and tell them your gonna use your old sim instead of the new one?
Also, what settings did you change on the iPad?
I want to try this.
Thanks
The iPad micro-sim is data only
The iPhone micro-sim is cellular phone plus data
Doesn't sound like it will work unless you choose not to make phone calls.
Yes I know this.
I think you may have misunderstood my statement.
I was referring to the op's situation of using his existing iPhone sim in the new iPhone 4 and continue to use his current sim in his iPad. He is obviously using his current sim on both the iPhone and the iPad.
