Prepaid microsim for iPad during visit to US

[sinykane]

Hi,

we'll be traveling to US soon and would like to use our (unlocked) new iPad with a microsim during the two weeks. I did notice the previous questions about buying cards for iPhones, but none about microsims for iPad.

Is it possible to get a prepaid microsim data package for an iPad for two weeks? Do you know if we can get it at the airport in NYC (JFK) or should we get it from somewhere else. We'll be driving to Boston from JFK.

Obviously we don't live there so we don't have a local address (but I guess you can give the hotel address) nor a local credit card (but some kind of a gift card / prepaid credit card would do?).

Thanks!

Just visit a local ATT store, or even a Apple store, and get a prepaid SIM from either one. Depending on your provider, will depend if the iPad can be used either on ATT or Verizon's network.

You can check for Apple store locations in NYC at http://www.apple.com/retail/

 I told lots of people ,there are no AT&T store inside most airport in US.

Go to AT&T web and found out where are the nearest store from your hotel etc.

As long as your IPad is unlock, you can use any network in US.

Get your micro Sim ,and you can do sign up anything from your Ipad.

Cost from US$15 plus tax for 250 MB

Just remember to close your account on your Ipad before you left USA.

And for sure, (but I guess you can give the hotel address)  (but some kind of a gift card / prepaid credit card would do?).

How much data would you expect to be using? Prepaid data can get VERY expensive for rather small amounts.
