Q: 2 data plans or 1?

I have an iPad 2 and just bought a 3rd generation iPad. I want to keep both on a cellular data plan. Can I share the same data plan or does each iPad require and separate data plan?

It depends completely on what plans your cell carriers offers. Some carriers offer shared data plans, but many do not. Contact your carrier and ask.

Regards.

Thanks! I have AT&T, so I will check with them.

AT&T does offer shared data plans. Click the "mobile share" tab on this page:

It's probably cheaper to just sign each iPad up for it's own plan, though, but call AT&T and see if there's another plan that would be sensible for two iPads as opposed to a smartphone and another device which is how AT&T's standard plans are set.

Regards.
