Just found this article over at AppleInsider.com that reveals AT&T's international data plan pricing for the 3G Apple iPad and it ain't pretty.
Check out these wallet-shredding rates:
- $24.99/month: 20 MB Data Global Add-On gives you 20 MB of usage within more than 90 countries
- $59.99/month: 50 MB Data Global Add-On gives you 50 MB of usage within more than 90 countries
- $119.99/month: 100 MB Data Global Add-On gives you 100 MB of usage within more than 90 countries
- $199.99/month: 200 MB Data Global Add-On gives you 200 MB of usage within more than 90 countries
Certainly more alternatives will come along from local wireless providers since the iPad uses a GSM micro-SIM card, but for now Wi-Fi seems to be the way to go, internationally speaking.
