Apple has announced that iPad Wi-Fi + 3G models will be delivered to U.S. customers who pre-ordered in time for “late April” delivery on April 30.
The new models will also be available at Apple retail stores the same day beginning at 5:00 p.m. As with the iPad Wi-Fi, Apple retail stores will offer a free Personal Setup service to each customer who buys an iPad Wi-Fi + 3G at the store, including helping them to setup email and load apps.
Apart from selling for $130 more than their Wi-Fi-only counterparts, the iPad Wi-Fi + 3G models are also 0.1 pounds heavier, feature a prominent black strip at the top of back plate for antenna access, offer up to nine hours of web surfing over 3G, and are slightly larger than the Wi-Fi-only models.
