Google has announced that its Project Fi now supports data-only devices including the iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 4. Project Fi is a mobile network that works using a combination of T-Mobile, Sprint, and Wi-Fi.
Today, we’re excited to share our latest update: support for data-only devices. With this update, you can access cellular connection from tablets and other connected devices while on the go. Once you’ve ordered and received a data-only SIM, just pop it into a compatible device, follow the instructions, and voila: instant wireless connectivity. Just like with our phone plans, you’re charged a flat $10/GB for data and pay only for what you use. You can cancel at any time.
Existing Project Fi subscribers can order their free data-only SIMs from the “Account” page on the Project Fi website. This change is rolling out gradually, you should see the option to order data-only SIMs sometime in the next couple of days. If you’re interested in being part of Project Fi’s Early Access Program, please visit fi.google.com to learn more about the service and request an invite.

● Nexus 9 - 0P82300 (US LTE)
