Apple’s new iPad Air 2 not only includes faster wireless, it will also allow you to pick your flavor. 

Cupertino’s new slates include a single preinstalled SIM that will allow users to choose service from just about any major carrier. 

The feature could be a catalyst for competition in the space of short-term prepaid data plans. 

For instance, an iPad owner travelling to Seattle for the week can now choose from Carrier X, Y and Z and select whichever plan happens to be the cheapest. 

Apple says it has improved the wireless connections on iPad Air 2 as well. The company says the iPad Air 2 can support Wi‑Fi with speeds up to 866 Mbps. Meanwhile, the cellular models can support connection up to 150 Mbps — a 50 percent increase over previous models.
