Hey guys so ordered a 16g Black 4g verzion Ipad last night! Woot woot! First ipad im stoked! Im just curious about the data usage plans, and how much 3GB or 5GB can do for me a month? I will be bringing my ipad to work everyday and using it for a 45 min lunch to watch netflix 5 days out of the week. At home/GF's/School I will be using wifi. If im out and about like going to mall and stuff I will be using the internet on the ipad, not daily but on the weekends and maybe 2 days out of the week at my friends house that does not have wifi, for youtube videos and surfing the internet. So which plan do you think I should go with?

I'd start the 3GB plan at first... hate to pay extra for stuff I won't need. You can always bump it up for the following month if needed.
 
Can't you also sign up for the 5 GB mid-month if you're coming close to 3 GB's? I'd assume Verizon would notify you if you were close and let you get the next one up.
