    Apparently Fox News has some insiders on the situation and it looks like AT&T was chosen based on price and price alone.
    According to my sources, AT&T was able to outbid every other GSM carrier with a $14.99 or $29.99 plan that gives customers 250MB or unlimited data, respectively.
    T-mobile, Spring, AT&T, and Verizon, for awhile now, have been very firmon their netbook/laptop 3G plans, with each carrier actually being at the exact same price point, unlike cell phone plans pricing which varies quite a bit from carrier to carrier. The normal laptop/netbook 3G plan is $59.99/m, that is limited to 5GB of usage, and $39.99/m, that is limited to much much less than what an average consumer uses (what the $39.99 plan is limited to does change from carrier to carrier)

    Although when Fox asked AT&T about the situation:

    I asked AT&T spokesman Mark Siegel if his company outbid T-Mobile and Sprint. He refused to comment, noting only that "we're very happy that Apple selected AT&T to be the main carrier partner on the iPad."
