Vodafone has undercut rival Telstra on iPad pricing in a bid to out-plan rivals.
A 16GB new iPad on Vodafone will set you back $47 per month with 2GB data – compared to Telstra $48 plan with just 1GB data, while Voda’s 6GB data plan is $57, 12GB $67 and 14GB and 18GB plans costing $77 and $87 respectively.

This compares to Telstra’s 4GB ($58), 8GB ($68) and 15GB ($98) plans, meaning Voda are offering far more bang for your iPad buck on data.

Voda’s 32GB iPad start at $51 with 2GB data, undercutting Telstra starting rate of $52 with 1GB data.
