Worth buying 3G iPad now?

Would it be worth buying the 3G iPad now with the upcoming changes with AT&T if the only use from it would be minor and for apps such as netflix?

That's assuming you live somewhere with Sprint coverage.

Ford charges $30/month for 1gb and $60/month for 5gb of data to turn your car into a wifi hotspot

excuse me in what universe is 5GB unlimited? and is this the same universe where $12.50 per GB is a fair deal? I pay comcast about .50 per GB and as for streaming netflix over 3G even with the mislabeled unlimited plan you would burn through your 5 GB limit with only a handful of movies. AT&T screwed us sideways on the deal.

so i just placed my order earlier this morning for a 3G iPad so i could get the unlimited data plan which appeals to me more than a 2GB plan for same price even if i use less than 2GBs, if streaming from netflix i will not have to worry about going over any limit.
