This actually really makes me want to buy a cellular version.
I love how TMobile is just killing it out there - CEOs of other carriers are probably losing sleep.
Everyone else on other carriers should be happy too - this is going to force carriers to change their practice and better the industry as a whole!
I saw that on apple.com as well.
We have all ATT phones, and old Ipad. Might get new one with T-Mobile. I really do not need to download much to ipad.
But - if I ever want to switch to ATT data plan... can I do that?

It's 2 years on the HP laptops that have built in broadband and there's a method to add additional usage when you use up that 200MB during any given month.
Cheers,
It is 200MB a month and it's free for 2 years (on HP) but if you exceed that 200MB they offer a way to buy additional usage for that month.
Cheers,
think it will be like the iPhone 5S and the verizon model work on everything but sprint? Because I usually buy verizon ipads and will this time but ill def try the free data to see how t-mobiles network is around here. might be able to save the $30 a month.
This is an amazing deal. Made me go from for sure buying Wi-Fi only to seriously thinking of getting the T-Mobile edition!
200MB is a great amount for that one or two days in the month you find yourself with crappy wi-fi at a cafe or on the road or something. And being FREE (other than the $129 one time charge) makes it lucrative. If you keep your new iPad for 24 months that's just $5 a month more.

Not to mention you get the GPS chip in it for that price too... unless they changed it up and didn't mention it the Wifi model won't have the GPS chip.

According to that specs sheet, the GPS is only for the Cellular model indeed.
Basically, for $129 more you get a new 9.7" GPS system (since you can use the free 200MB monthly to make it usable). Not a bad deal thinking of it that way!
this would be my sole purpose in buying an ipad... i wonder if its going to apply to tablets?
There is only one model. The iPad is unlocked and works with all carriers. Buy whichever you can and swap in a carrier SIM you want to use.
I know ithe sim portion is unlocked but they've always done screwy stuff with CDMA portion
