According to Clayton Morris of Fox News, Apple has been talking to AT&T and Verizon regarding the upcoming iSlate, but states that neither carrier has finalized a deal. Multiple carriers for the tablet had been discussed before (Apple iSlate Reviews – January 7th, 2010) but according to Morris additional details were revealed by his sources suggesting that Verizon will use some form of tiered pricing instead of a flat monthly rate.

“According to sources inside Verizon, the company’s version of the tablet will feature built-in Wi-Fi utilizing Verizon’s hotspots for free data; the device will switch onto the 3G cellular network when it’s away from a hotspot. This makes it easy and safe to connect to trusted Wi-Fi servers, and you’ll get a line-item for that data service on your cell bill. Basically you won’t need a home data modem service anymore.”
