I stream the ocasional video and do a few things here and there nothing crazy and I'm using somewhere in the realm of .5GB.
 
Before I used MOG (only used pandora) I was hitting 4-5GB a month. My phone is used as a tool to do the following:

-upload and share documents to dropbox

-download documents and email attachments. Some of these can be quite large and I upload them toy Dropbox

-forum surfing

-news reading. Pulse is my favorite app for this

-Music: Pandora and now MOG

Being able to access documents, manipulate them, and then re upload them is very important. Further more, being in the medical field, my device for things like Micromedix and epocrates need to be accessible when I don't have wifi.

Two types of consumers: ones that only consume on their mobile devices and those who use the mobile devices as tools in order to produce.

All of these policies and changes are of inhibit my ability to produce.

Bring the European structure over here. Let me pay full retail for a device In exchange for unlimited data and cheaper minutes/text packages.
 
I use between 2GB-4GB of cellular data every month. If I travel the number is near or higher then 4GB, but if I mostly stay at home the number is closer or a tad below the 2GB mark.
 
I will say I'm surprised. I was expecting the 2 - 4GB and the 4 - 6GB to be neck in neck but looks like most of you guys ≤1GB

Well, I've been between 400-600MB every month for a year. But I just started trying out some streaming music, and I'm almost to 500 after just 10 days this month. May have to change my vote.
