I currently have the free 200 MB monthly on T-Mobile on my iPad Mini 2. I would like to buy the new 10.5" Pro, and be able to transfer my SIM card over to it so that I can continue to get the free 200 MB of data. Is there a particular model/carrier that I need to buy? I've read that I shouldn't buy the ones with the Apple Sim cards, and buying a T-Mobile iPad Pro would not work as well, which is a bit confusing. Some have suggested that I should buy the one that comes with the ATT SIM card. Any accurate information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
 
My understanding is you cannot transfer the free 200 MB monthly plan. It is locked to the device. Also T-mobile has discontinued the free 200MB plan in new iPads. I think that all iPads come with the Apple SIM pre-installed (unless maybe you buy directly from a carrier?)
