If I replace my Wifi + 3G with a Wifi-only iPad, do I still need a data plan from AT&T?

Thanks!

Yes, you have to pay activation fee and it costs 35 dollars.

You have to have a debit card. No cash and no credit card allowed.

AT&T will be charging 35 dollars a month for your wi-fi plan.

I hope this helps.

Include a JK, lest he takes you seriously.

Praise be the day some of you ask a question on a topic you are confused about.

To the original poster... No you would not need a data plan at that point, it would be irrelevant. You would then just be able to access the Internet when you were in range of a wireless/wifi signal.
 
Okay, enough with sarcasm.
In order to pay for AT&T 3g plan, you need have a device that has AT&T 3G radio built in. Wi-fi model doesn't' have that built in. So, AT&T cannot charge you.
It can be upgraded later though. You just have to send it back to apple at an extra cost. Just like how Motorola Xoom has 3G built in and can be shipped out for 4G upgrade.

I hope this helps.
 
dude..
if you know how to make a thread on a web forum but don't know the answer to your OP question...

sometimes man..i just don't know how people make it through the day.

Apple offers no such upgrade plan...
