Difference between The New Ipad Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi + Cellular

[JaseUK]

I know this may sound like a daft question as the answer is probably in the title but I am not sure what the differences are between the two.

Does the cheaper one have wi-fi plus 3G as I cant find 3G anywhere in the tech specs for the cheaper ipad.

I see that the more expensive one has Wi -fi plus Cellular (with 4G).

The only reason I ask is that I want an ipad that i can connect to the internet when I am not near a Wi-Fi.

Cheers for the info.

The ipad is going to be for the wife, I have never used one so am not sure of all the tech.

Magic dont worry about it mate. If anything its helped the thread and made me think that the ipad could connet through the wifes iphone.

Is this called internet tethering?

Edit:
Just looked at the iPhone and its also called Personal Hotspot, that could save us a few bob.
