Best 3G or 4G options for IPAD3

    I have an Ipad 3 with the 3G (and I think 4G) option. I was thinking that I might take out a subscription and see do I make use of it on the go during the day etc. I wont be doing any major downloads but may look at streamed videos of some online courses I was thinking of doing.

    I was wondering what experiences any of you have had and what is the best option for coverage/ quality/ price out there.

    Thanks

    I'd probably go with 3 because they offer free data if you're up in the North too. Or a few other counties too.

    Be aware that 3 will want to send you text messages to activate SIM, web password, etc.
    They really don't get the fact that the iPad can't do text.
    Two months ago their website wasn't clear that you had to call them to get online.
    I just cancelled my 30 day SIM.

    I think the question being asked is to go with a 3G sim not 3 Ireland or to
    Get a 4g sim I could be wrong though

    Thanks for the replies.

    My question is both. Should I go for aa 3G or a 4G sim and which provider gives best balance of cost/ coverage / quality? I wont be using it a huge amount but hope to use it to watch some streamed video.

    My location of use will be Meath and Dublin.

    Does the iPad 3 have 4g. As far as I know eMobile/meteor are the only ones offering 4g at the moment
