Why do you say mandatory? You can buy an iPad with a modem and it doesn't have a mandatory cellular plan.

I'm not the OP but I guess that if you buy an iPad with a modem you do actually want to use said modem otherwise you'd just buy the cheaper WiFi one. Hence the data plan.

Though I always use prepay on them.. for a tenner you get a month's worth with 50GB here which is more than sufficient for a holiday.
