tasks you bought it for? I am thinking about buying an Apple Ipad but heard you need to get a monthly plan with Verizon or AT&T for internet WiFi. Is this true? I am buying it because I like the Ebook compatibility as well as music downloads. I am just concerned I have to go out and get another monthly bill from another carrier just to enjoy all the features after you spend $500 to get the Ipad. I am very illiterate when it comes to all this new technology so I am blind to what all the Ipad has to offer but figure its time to get with the times
