But once you download
the apps, you don't need 3G to make them work. It's just getting access to
the internet for emails and web surfing if you want the 3G. I only
purchased the Wi-Fi version because I didn't want the monthly data
plan. But as I said, once you download the speaking app, like Speak
It, you don't need internet access to make it work.

You have the option of paying for a month (say you are going to be traveling) but you have to remember to stop the service or you keep getting a recurrent bill.
I believe it is $60.

[mailto:xxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Erin Singleton
All this Ipad talk has motivated me to finally purchase one for our clinic to demo to patients considering it as an option.
As I was on Apple’s website ordering one it gave me the choice of Wifi alone or Wifi with 3G. Of course I’m thinking we’d want 3G in case we need internet access outside WiFi zones but can someone tell me if you have to pay a monthly service fee (like you do on your Iphone) to have 3G as an option? I’m not sure how I’d maneuver that with my company.
Your input is appreciated!
