I have an iPhone 4S (iOS 7) and a first generation ipad mini (iOS 6). I have heard that I can't/shouldn't update either device to iOS 8 so I'm thinking of purchasing an iPhone 6 plus at full retail price. I wanted to get some advice before doing so:

1) I have a prepaid Verizon Wireless data plan for the ipad mini. Is it possible to use that nano SIM in an iPhone 6 plus? I ask because I'm only interested in using the cellular data and not the phone functions.

2) I travel internationally a lot, but I don't necessarily need LTE abroad, just 3G. Which iPhone 6 plus to get? The Verizon one? Or wait for the official unlocked release?

Thanks for the advice.
