Just bought a used ipad - 3g service?
#5
Remember that the iPad uses the odd micro SIM card. So you'd probably have to cut up a regular T-Mobile SIM to get it to fit.

And, T-Mobile uses different frequencies from AT&T for 3G. My guess is the iPad does not support the T-Mobile 3G frequencies, so you'd be limited to the very slow EDGE data speeds.

I think it does support the European 2100 MHz 3G networks, so you could use a European SIM in an iPad when traveling abroad (again, if you cut it down to micro SIM size).

Good luck.
