Selling iPads through Verizon is a very interesting move. Verizon will only be carrying the WiFi models, but priced at the 3G model level when bundled with a MiFi. If a customer goes for the bundle, they get 1GB a month service for $20, 3GB for $35, or 5GB for $50. All without a contract.

Apple is probably doing this for two reasons. First, they ensure the iPad is sitting next to potential competitor tablets even in AT&T and Verizon stores. It also allows Apple to get the ball rolling with Verizon for a future (and persistently rumored) CDMA iPhone.
