I am technologically challenged

I found a good deal on an iPad mini but I don't really understand. It's the wifi one. So if I'm not near a wifi network does that mean I can't use it? I'm mainly looking at it for movies while traveling. Will this even be helpful?

If you have the movies downloaded on it, yes. Netflix won't work, unless you have a mobile hotspot. Otherwise, Internet access will be limited.

If you download all of the movies you want to watch ahead of time (from iTunes, before you leave on your trip) then it wont matter if you have wifi or not. But no, you wont be able to use the internet unless you are connected to a wifi network. That's not to say you can't use it without wifi, but you wouldn't be able to go on the web, stream movies (you can still watch things you've already downloaded), etc.

Ahh that makes sense. I think that will be fine. Thanks guys!
