Hello guys, I want to buy an Ipad mini + cellular, but I dont want to stick to any contract.

But, how does it work then?

I will then buy any internet prepaid an it will work?
How am I able to top up after I finish my quota?
Can sms directly from Ipad?

1. iPad mini LTE wifi works with any NANO sim internet prepaid.

2. Normally it reloads like normal prepaid phone card. Refer to your specific telco.

3. Apparently NO.

i remembered there was a program which allows you to open the numpad and type in the codes and it works just like a phone, will top up the credit.

but i can't seem to find it anymore in appstore, weird.

iPad mini cannot SMS (who use it anyway) and u can buy from online store without any contract.

For reloading, u have 2 ways.

1. Take out SIM card manually and top it up.

2. Buy a spare cheap phone with another prepaid SIM card and share the reload to the iPad SIM.

After few times, so mah fan, u ended up buying a contract for it.

Or you can top-up online using M2U. I'm thinking of getting cellular but using prepaid too.. The basic Hotlink with free 64kbps sounds perfect.
