What Is Everyone Upto Now? Since Netflix Is Out Now, Im Sure People Are Pushing Some Big Data Usage.

Im At 7825.92mb At 17 Of 31 Days Of My Plan.
 
My Data Usage

Don't have Netflix but i used a little over 7GB's. Mostly from tethering, my roommates take up all the house internet Lol
 
I usually tend to use Netflix on WiFi (I streamed a little on 3G when it first came out just to try it), but since OS 4.0 started allowing background streaming audio I've increased from an average of about 250 MB/mo to about 750 MB/mo.
 
I am at 5.9gb. Maybe when the novelty of netflix wears off I will slow down. I did 4gb just since netflix has been out. I wonder how long att will let us keep our unlimited at this rate. who thinks this is why att started the new data rate because of netflix
 
im approaching 8 gigs this month

FaceTime over 3G, Tethering a few times, just tested out the Netflix app....3G Unrestictor
 
Jesus no wonder why I still have slowish 3g speeds.... I'm at around 500mb with 3 days left in billing cycle and thats higher than normal because of netflix testing..
 
I'm almost at 2GB at the end of my cycle and I've never gone over 400MB before. Gotta love netflix, facetime, and mlb at bat
 
Yeah, I'm going to have to try that going back to the unlimited data plan trick.

I had the unlimited, but I just really didn't use all that much data. Now that my hometown has 3G, I've been using it a TON. I usually would just use it on wifi.

I'm going to try that trick to see if it works though.
 
Aside from audio postcasts and occasional YouTube/short clips embedded in my favorite blogs, I don't stream much. I am at 29 of 31 days into my billing cycle and have used 1133.52 MB.
 
I'm at 1.36GB with 19 days left. I usually average about 8-12GB depending on how many TV shows/videos I download. I use 3G just because i works so good.
 
5 days left in the billing cycle and I've used like 800 MB and that includes tethering for a week on vacation not too much time tho just for basic functions....
 
I'm pushing 5GB for the month. Most of that is Pandora with a few episodes of MI-5 on Netflix thrown in.
 
What is that phone # you can type in your phone and AT&T sends your phone the message with data usage info?
