Q: 16 or 32 gigabytes

Yes. Depending on what you plan to store on your iPad the first 16 GB can fill up pretty quick, and you can't buy more memory afterwards.

Remember "cellular capabilities" mean only cellular data.  You cannot use a cellular iPad (or a non-cellular iPad) to do SMS or MMS text messaging or (obviously) telephoning.

On my 16 gig, I have a couple of movies, hundreds of documents, few dozen songs, few dozen apps and I have a couple of gig free. So you can manage on 16, but if you have the extra money, go for the 32. That way you spend less time managing your data and you have more wiggle room to store files.

Yes.

I would get the largest capacity iPad you can afford (or save to get a larger capacity), as you will fill it up fairly quickly.

An iPad can not have more memory added once purchased.
