I'm moving in approximately 3 weeks and my only internet solution is tethering on my iPhone 4. I have it jailbroken on os 4.1 and have the factory tethering enabled.

I get 2-3 bars of 3G where I'm moving. I usually consume about 2 or slightly more GB of data per month for about the last six months.

My concern is that I'm going to rack up a lot of data and they might get suspicious. I've never had capped data before and my phone plan is still unlimited data. I guess I'm just looking for some browsing tips so I don't just blow up 100 gb of data the first month and they kill my service. I know YouTube is a data eater, any others that I might overlook easily? thx:apple:
 
From what I've read, you'll be fine as long as you stay under 5GB. I've gotten up to 4GB before and never had any problems.
