Re: non premium
I'm a bit confused by the downvotes. If you buy an iPad with 4G chip, then you've bought a mobile phone you can't speak on. It's got all the tech of a mobile phone, but not the UI. Obviously you can use mobile data with your app of choice to use it for voice comms too.
So the only difference that should affect the price is that the iPad has a screen that's 3-4 times the size of a top line mobile, and therefore is considerably more expensive - and a bigger battery, which is a little more so.
The only reason for the price difference is that people are more willing to pay stupid money for top of the range mobiles than they are for tablets. And also that lots of people still get phones with their airtime contract, and are thus effectively paying for them in installments - and so don't notice the price.
