To sell or lock in?

[Zepaw]

My first reaction to the data plan rate changes was thank god my iPad has unlimited. Then of course I found a story pointing out the iPad will be affected the same. I was already getting close to selling my 3G iPad for a wifi one because I want to cut down on my various monthly charges. I let my 3G lapse a few days ago to help with deciding if I should sell and buy a wifi or get 3G back. Now I have half a week to make the decision. I am an active user when 3G is on so I want unlimited or nothing. This changes pushes me away from renewing 3G because I love being able to let it lapse if I feel I will have no use for the 3G for a while. Descisions Decisions.

Any advice?

Keep the 3G. 2GB of occasional access is better than no access when you are out of wifi range.

Keep it ... Or sell it to me and take a loss!

Seriously only you know how much data you use SO

Why would you sell the 3G and buy a WiFi only? The 3G is still capable of using WiFi.

If you're willing to go WiFi only you can probably afford to accept a lower data rate anyhow...

Unless you can get what you paid, including tax, you don't really "save" anything by selling at a loss then buying a WiFi model. If you don't use the 3G ever again, you are $130 down the hole. And really, you still have 3G for a true "emergency" even if you decide not to subscribe.
