I was able to use the 3G on my iPad using the 3G service on my iPhone WIRELESSLY. I'm writing a guide right now and registered a domain dedicated to showing how this is set up. I should have the site up and guide up in the next few days. I can say it works VERY well.

Phil,

Several members have Pmed me regarding Tethering and I have warned them regarding tethering. Some carriers(not all) CHARGE you for tethering per kb. So you might want to check your online bill first to see if there are any extra charges. Tethering has been discussed in many forums and many (who didn't know that they get charged) got bills up to 300$+. Check with you carrier if tethering is allowed or not.

Just wanted to give you guys a heads up.

Curious to see what all those who bought theirs a month ago think after using it a bit. I love mine (32 gb 3G). Surfing the web is great. I wish I could upload some of the 10000 now useless pics I have on here tho. It does have a few negatives but I bought it to surf the web with out a shitty net book OS system slowing me down and surfing I am I bought that arcos 9 that just came out before the iPad. It had windows 7 but OMG I grew a beard waiting for that thing to load. That thing was a big POS! I somehow sold it for more then i bought it for to some guy in saudi arabia.... Go figure The comparison is night n day. Well worth the loss of a few key features and bending over at apples every demand ( not a fan of technological communism)

I plan to sell mine shortly before the 2 nd gen comes out n minimize the transitional loss. I will be upgrading depending on the new additions. iPad/ iPhone has the best web browsing ive experienced to date
