In my hopes to save a bit of cash I wanted to buy a refurbished iPad Air (wifi/cellular) from Apple. Their only choices are with ATT as the cellular carrier. Not wanting to use ATT I was hoping to be able to switch carriers at a later date. Many posters online claim that the iPad's aren't locked to a carrier and swapping SIM cards is all that is needed. Today, I talked to Apple on their "chat" line and was told that iPad's are locked to a specific carrier in the US. Now, this is totally conflicting with most of what others claim. Since the iPads aren't subsidized by carriers like the iPhones swapping SIM's for a different carrier is all that is needed. Sprint was the only exception to the rule it seems.
Anyone here swapped carriers on their iPad? Any issues?
