You sound like me....I got a feeling AT&T is going to find a way to boot us off our Iphone unlimited somehow....I was close to getting the iPad2 VZ as well. After doing extensived research and getting over my indeciveness between Att vs VZ data plan, I'm so glad I went with 3G Att version. First, I am already an exceptional ATT customer and second I want to have my iPad/iPhone in one bill. Asides from that, I saw the YouTube on Att vs VZ's speed data and Att's speed is way faster. I don't really care for the gsm thing since I don't go overseas. You are probably asking why I don't do hotspot with my iphone instead. Main reason is I want to protect from losing my unlimited data for my iPhone. And convenience is priceless to me. My first iPad was just a wifi and my experienced with wifi was just a mediocre experinced because it was wifi dependent whereas my 3G iPad now, I am more excited and motivated to take it along with me. Knowing that I can connect anywhere with it and not having to rely to go to a coffee shop and wifi places is the biggest part and more enjoyable iPad experience I ever had.

Also GSM devices have a much higher resell value on the open market!!!

Interesting, do you have any documentation for this?
A quick check at the eBay shows both versions of the iPad 2 selling for the same price. The same is true for the ATT and Verizon versions of the iPhone 4 on eBay.

Don't need documentation. I have been selling GSM devices for years. Most of those listings on Ebay are locked to USA only folks don't want the hassle with international shipping when they can bring profits from the black market in the US. Believe me when everyone is ready to dump their Ipad2's for ipad3's those who decide to ship international will make buckets.
I am on my 4th gen of Iphone's from At&T and everyone that I have used for a year I have been able to sale for more that I paid 12 months prior...
Its simple... is my device available to the world or limited to the US?
I was going to grab a Verizon 3g model the other day as that is all that is available locally right now. But when the salesman told me that it costs $20 a month for only 1gb where ATT costs $20 for 2gb, I passed. Is this true? It would be nice to have the option of 3g on rare occasion and the GPS feature would be nice to have.

It's funny how people say " 2 times as fast", which isn't true.
Who freakin' cares but the iPad owner? Isn't this like asking "which is better, Coke or Pepsi?"
It's all what works for the individual owner. Not everything is about resale value or international usage. I don't care what resale value my minivan can get, I only care if it works for me & my family. I don't care what channels I can watch in London since I have zero plans on going there.
Point is this: we make choices. We make choices based on many things important to the INDIVIDUAL. Verizon vs AT&T. Does my choice matter to anyone else but me? Should it? Nope. To each his own. Choice is a beautiful thing.
