iPad connects to the Internet automatically whenever you use Mail, Safari, YouTube, the App Store, or the iTunes Store. iPad connects to the Internet using a Wi-Fi network. iPad Wi-Fi + 3G can also connect to the Internet using a cellular data network. Data service is sold separately.

Once you join a Wi-Fi network, iPad automatically connects to it whenever the network is in range. If more than one previously used network is in range, iPad joins the one

last used.

all carriers oer 3G data plans.
