a lot of people, including myself, had hard time deciding whether preorder wifi ipad or 4g ipad. in end felt 4g not right me because use ipad @ home , can tether unlimited data phone if need arises.
still on fence, found article gizmodo lays out true cost of having 4g. thought i'd pass along:
:http://gizmodo.com/5891064/how-much-more-the-ipads-superfast-4g-lte-data-will-cost-you-updated
here data article file sizes:
at&t file-size estimates
1 app/game (non-retina): 4mb
1 app/game (retina): 8mb
1 hour of youtube streaming: 120mb
1 hour of netflix streaming: 306mb
mention pictures , apps larger because of hd screen. make using 4g ipad lot more costly expected.
it depends on content. if consciously streaming hd videos, yes. if you're talking images on sites, tend downloaded @ preset resolution whether using iphone, ipad (retina or not). in case, we're wasting data downloading can't appreciate.
retina display allows see images/videos are, data cost same. apps can larger, if of contents locally generated, app size won't increase much.
