I've used an iPod Touch for years and finally got the new iPhone 4S through AT&T with the 200MB plan. Because I know there is not a lot of data available in this plan, I want to be careful and not to go over. I'm wondering if you guys have any tips on keeping the data down. I'm wondering if things like push notifications and some background apps use a lot of data. Also wondering if apps Siri and GPS use a lot of data.

Thanks!

I've heard that siri can use alot of data. Youtube uses lots of data to. Checking facebook/twitter/google + once a day on it probably wouldn't go over you limit. Just watch what you do and you should also be getting texts form your network like when you've used 80% of it and 100% of it.
