Using the iPad on Verizon

I’ve had a new iPad since the day they were introduced and I’ve been using Verizon’s 3g network for my connection.

Wait, you say, isn’t the iPad and Apple tehered to AT&T?

I have found a perfectly adequate workaround.

If you have the Novatel MiFi 2200 Mobile Wi-Fi Hotspot Modem from Verizon, you can create a 3G network of your own on the Verizon network and thus, use that iPad anywhere.
Downside is you’ll have to pay Verizon a monthly fee, starting at $39, for that service. But since Verizon arguably has the nation’s best 3g coverage, that MiFi card is an attractive solution for many.

Oh yeah, the same trick works with an iPhone or an iTouch.
