Ipad is different. I understand with smartphones the carriers do detect your phone type automatically and turn your data plan on.
I can call confirm with them though.

YEs Ipads are different but it is the same principal.

I did some more research
It is not that the smart phone needs the data plan to work it is the phone carriers that require all smart phones to have a data plan.
It would be too costly to have plans that were based on useage only.
So they just make all smart phones have data plans.
It is a catch 22 you dont need it but you have to have it.
I spoke with Verizon Sprint TMobile and AT&T all said the say thing.
Sorry but your stuck with a data plan.
