• No Surface product has native support for a Cell carrier such as ATT, Sprint, etc.... All you have is WiFi. If you have internet in your home with a WiFi router or some other device to server your WiFi enabled devices, then you have everything you need. Just make sure your connection is password protected and encrypted. You can also turn off the WiFi on the tablet, Airplane mode, and use it offline. I hope that answers your question.

• NO...Surface 2 & Surface Pro 2 are not 4G enabled (Yet) perhaps in 2014, therefore you DO NOT need a buy a data plan from any carrier and can use WiFi all you want.
