The way the plans work for iPads in the US, when you reach your 250 meg cap on the $15 plan, you can buy another 30 days/250 megs immediately, or wait for the month to roll over. So you can, in effect, buy 500 megs for $30, or simply pay the $30 for the unlimited plan up front (and risk leaving money on the table if you use less).

So realistically, unless you are going to consistently exceed 500 megs per month, and I think that’s a rare case indeed, the pricing looks quite similar to me, Canada vs. U.S.

iPhone users chime in - how many of you are exceeding 500 megs per month right now on your iPhone?
