There are two two data plans available for the iPad 3G. Both AT&T and Verizon offer 3G data plans to provide the tablet with always-on Internet connectivity. Both carriers offer 2GB standard plans, but AT&T offers a lower-priced plan, while Verizon gives you a much higher top-tier option.

Note: iPad 3G contracts in place before 6/7/10 can retain AT&T's original $30/month for unlimited data plan.
