Hey!
My friend is in America at the moment and bought a couple of iPad 3G's, and has asked if I would like to purchase one from him when he gets back here tomorrow. I have a few concerns before purchasing.

First of all, I notice that on the 3G iPad's, there is an option for AT&T activation. Will this always be there, even if I cut down and insert a normal UK sim?

This leads me onto my next main concern. Technically, if I insert a UK sim with prepaid mobile broadband credit loaded onto it,which i have cut down to micro sim size, should it work automatically in the iPad?

I understand the iPad 3G has only just been released and therefore the answers to these questions may not be available yet, but thought I'd ask just in case anyone at all knew.

Many Thanks
