Ipad news appear

Both AT&T and Verizon sent out press releases this morning, confirming that each network will be receiving 16, 32, and 64GB iPads equipped with WiFi and 4G LTE cellular connectivity.

Each carrier’s data plans will allow customers to connect at ultra fast 4G speeds where the network is available. Currently, Verizon’s LTE reaches more customers, but AT&T is quickly catching up.

Both carriers announced data plans, and as we confirmed last week, the plans are similar to what’s currently offered for 3G.

Verizon’s data plans:

    1 GB – $20
    2 GB – $30
    5 GB – $50
    10 GB – $80

AT&T’s data plans:

    250 MB – $14.99
    3 GB – $30
    5 GB – $50

Moving forward, AT&T customers with grandfathered unlimited plans will be throttled once they reach 3GB on 3G, or 5GB on 4G– note they will still be charged $30 per month. For more information on the plans and overage charges, check out our original article comparing the two.

Both AT&T and Verizon extol the virtues of the new iPad in the press release, touting its impressive Retina Display graphics, quad-core GPU, and new 5-megapixel iSight camera capable of 1080p graphics. And of course, its amazing battery life coupled with lightning fast LTE speeds, which are up to 10 times faster than 3G.

AT&T and Verizon will both have the iPad available for purchase as of Friday, March 16th at retail stores and online.
