Hi Shane,
I have the wifi model only (32GB).
As I use my iPad a lot at home, I can just feed off my home wifi network.
As far as using it as a GPS navigator, the iPad is too big and unwieldy to have on the dash of car and too dangerous to view off a car seat.
If you want to surf the net on the go, you can buy a prepaid portable mobile wifi unit and connect other devices as well e.g. laptop.
I have SkySafari Pro which is probably the best sky navigation/info app I have seen for the money (now $60). There are cheaper versions with less objects (SkySafari Plus is $15). As it works off the internal compass you don't need GPS. Info for objects is inbuilt so you don't need a network connection. Updates can be performed on the home network. When I set up the app, the iPad seemed to be able to work out my general location without GPS using the internet.
Also recommend MoonPhase-moon info ($1.99) and Celsius-Weather & Temperature ($0.99).
Regards, Rob
