Q: can i use my 3g ipad overseas if i put in a new micro sim?

Im planning on using my ipad whilst traveling through Aus. I bought it from the apple store in hong kong and have been using a micro sim. Can I put in a new sim card in Australia? Or is the iPad locked to the hk network?

    Did you buy your iPad from an HK telecom operator who locks their iPads they sell?

    If the answer is no and your iPad is indeed unlocked, then you can use any micro-SIM card in your iPad, provided it is actually compatible with an iPad.
