In a media statement from Maxis today, the telecommunication company announced that it will extend its iPad dedicated plans to the next generation of iPad 2 with Wi-Fi + 3G in coming weeks.
Maxis today announced it will offer dedicated data plans for iPad 2 with Wi-Fi + 3G in the coming weeks. iPad 2 is the next generation of Apple’s magical device for browsing the web, reading and sending email, enjoying photos, watching videos, listening to music, playing games, reading ebooks and much more. The amazing new iPad 2 improves on the original iPad by being thinner, lighter and faster, all while maintaining the same incredible 10 hours of battery life. For more information about iPad 2 please visit www.apple.com/ipad/.
At the time being, there is no information on the pricing for the data plans. The best thing we can do is wait or give it a guess. My best guess is that the data plans for iPad 2 will remain the same as that offered for the first generation iPad tablet (or at slightly lower aka attractive rates :-)).
The screenshot below show the current data plans for first generation iPad from Maxis. All data plans (postpaid and prepaid) is available without a contract. You have the freedom to cancel the plan at anytime.
