It has recently been discovered and confirmed that the iPad 2 3G model is carrier agnostic and it is unlocked in the United States. MuscleNerd has posted screenshot proof of an iPad 2 3G running on a T-Mobile network, unlike the iPhone, which is usually SIM-locked. Confirming iPad2 is carrier unlocked: https://is.gd/PAwtPX (same BB as iPhone…unlock status is in per-device “seczone”) The iPad2 unlock status was completely expected, just confirming it for those who want to use T-Mobile instead of AT&T. Doesn’t apply to i4 If you buy the UMTS/GSM model of the iPad 2 (also known as the AT&T version of the iPad 2), you can replace the iPad 2?s micro-SIM with one from another carrier of your choice, such as T-Mobile. You can also use it without havign to worry abotu being locked to one specific carrier. However, the Verizon model of the iPad 2 is carrier-locked because of its 3G chipset and won’t work on a GSM network. Either way it is nice to know that it is unlocked and usable on multiple carriers. Does this sway any of you to get an iPad 2 if you didn’t already? What about for those of you who bought one?
