Hi everyone here in MacRumors 🙂

So I'm a new member and I REALLY need a help! :S

I'm not new in APPLE WORLD, in 2008 I bought my first Apple product which was an iPhone 3G and then the list goes on. Now an iPhone 4 user.

But the MAIN PROBLEM is: I decided to buy an iPad 2 but I DON'T KNOW WHICH: COLOR TO CHOSE and Which Connection type: Wifi or Wifi+3G ?

I'm leaning towards White but I don't know if the 3G version will be useful, but in the other hand I want to have a connection to the internet where ever I am, e.x. I would love to have internet connection when I'm in my car.

So if you can help me a BIT I will really be glad and also a NEW iPad 2 Owner just like you guys 🙂:apple:

Thank in advance,

Ness.🙂

Welcome...
For me it would be simple:
Black ... In line with my iPhone. They are like twins ...
3G ? not really needed if you have iPhone. Maybe check if hotspot is an option for you.
I have 3G but not often in use as I mostly have a wifi around. A mobile/ pocket wifi router might be better.
Enjoy MR
 
Go in apple store and play with both the units and you by yourself decide which to go for I wanted black then I played with both and then finally got the White I liked it more . I took a wifi model because incase I want 3G I can always turn my mobile hot spot from my phone and get connected . But you know ur lifestyle better so won't comment on which one you should go for . As far as colour goes both look sexy and sleek what makes u feel good and great in real must be your colour in the end .
 
Tethering is SOO much better, or just buying one of those portable internet box thingys (totally drawing a blank as to what theyre called, too lazy to search it) Cheaper in the long run
 
The hot spot on your phone or a MIFI device is a better investment as you can connect up to five devices, so if you need to get online through your laptop you can.
 
Thank you so much for your kind answers 🙂

I already decided which one, it will be "White 32GB 3G"

Why White: I wanted something different than usual apple iPad and iPhone, also I like more the White color.

Why 32 GB: I think 64 is just to big for me, and the 16gb is just to small, and the 32 is in between them and satisfies my needs. Usually web-surfing, Music, Movies, Apps and apps.

Why Wifi+3G: I think where I live here are not so many Wi-Fi hotspots free and sometimes I may need Connection immediately so I decided to go with 3G also it will have GPS too, cuz' I think to use mi iPad in my car too.

I think and I'm sure that I will be happy with my decision.

If you are going to be taking your ipad out and are willing to spend the extra cash then go for it.

i have the 16GB wifi only....I would never use it away from home unless I go away on hoilday but even then I doubt I would use it for anything but games or movies/tv which you don't need internet for if you add them on.

All depends on if you will take your ipad out with you, i would just my iphone 4 for internet when away from home.

If I bought an ipad with 3G I would never use my iphone. It all depends on if you will see it enough
