iPad Data - Unlimited

When you go to "My Account" from the iPad you are able to change all data - name, email, phone number, address, and payment option. It appears to me that if you are wanting to sell the iPad that one could go in and change all the information to the new owner.
The only issue is that the new user would need the email address and password associated with the old account and you would have to trust the new owner enough to expect them change the payment plan. So I'm assuming if you were to do this you would want to sell to a local person where they could come and you could switch over the billing while they are there.

Free unlimited data
My hubby's iPad 3G came with apparently unlimited 3G data. He never signed up for a data plan, and according to "Settings" he has no plan and has used no data, yet his iPad connects via 3G to ATT's network, browses web, etc even with WiFi turned off. Is this some sort of lucky glitch in his iPad's SIM card? My iPad, the exact same model, does not, shucks. Wonder if anyone else has received a similar gift of unlimited free data.

Did he buy it off someone else who had the unlimited plan? It so, perhaps the person who sold it didn't cancel their account properly.
If he got it new from Apple or Best Buy--I have no idea how that could have happened and I'd say he is very lucky indeed.
No I don't think me is. This doesn't make any sense. You setup an account on the sim and you can edit the information, but you can't "transfer" anything. If you want to sell it you need to get a new sim for the new owner.
Go to cellular dats and click on the button for account information and see what comes up. Either you have a sim card with an account on it or you are really connecting on wifi. If the account window comes up asking for an email address instead of saying it's a new number then you have a previously used sim.
No, they actually want people to get off of it all together so they can downgrade them to the 2GB plan.
You're right, I checked and now it won't access the web with wifi turned off. I swear it was doing it before. Oh well the magic is gone.
