Default Verizon mobile

I have a little card that plugs into the motherboard of my laptop for Verizon broadband. Would that work in the iPad?

I want one... I want one!!!

No, it won't. You can plug that into the Cradlepoint router I mentioned earlier and make a wifi hotspot that the iPad can access though.

Default Don't think so

This is not the typical USB or PC Card. It plugs into a special slot on some Dell laptops. It is also known as an integrated card. That is why I wondered if it was actually a sim.

I think I know the one you're talking about (I have one in a drawer at home). It is about 2/3 the size of a typical PC Card? A little narrower?

Default Smaller

Much smaller. I have to move it to another laptop. Then I can see what it uses for a connector.
