If by waiting for takeoff, you mean you're on the plane with the door closed and in line on the taxiway, you're not supposed to have your phone on.
According to the flight attendants, we're allowed

who is surprised 5 movies = 2GB?
5 movies should be more like 3+GB. When I stream movies over 3G on my iPhone 4, each movies is roughly 500-700MB for about 1 hour 45 minutes.
I stream all the time because my classes are so far apart, and I don't want to drive home, just to go back to campus. Have unlimited data, and this is the only reason why I have not given it up.
how many years driving and watching movies tho..?![]()

Who in their right mind streams Netflix on 3G
Well I guess a few do, but the real issue on this is the impact on everyone else. This is why all the carriers have increasingly looked for ways to stick it to anyone that uses over 2GB a month.
or who wants to watch that many movies on an iPhone screen.
I would say less than 50% of frequent travelers actually abide by this policy. And yet, planes take off and land everyday without crashing.....
I didn't read all the replies, but... Do you have an unlimited plan?
It shows how much netflix works to compress that stream that its ONLY 2gb.
I'm sorry. I did that for a while. I feel your pain. The only good thing about that airport is they are allowed to serve you booze on the ground.I fly to and from Newark int. You can guarantee spending at least 30 minutes on the ground waiting to takeoff or taxing to the gate.
Sometimes I watch/listen to stand up comedy shows from netflix while I'm driving.
Same here I have like 2 hour gaps between classes 5 days a week and my ride home is 1 hour + so my iphone is like the only thing keeping me sane especially during the winter when there's nothing to do on campus
Why not try doing something rather controversial while you're on campus between classes like, I don't know, studying? You might be amazed at how much an extra hour a day quietly recapping will achieve.
Or you can befriend freshman chicks and bang them during your break...your call
I use my iPhone 4 and my iPad for Netflix streaming. I still have the unlimited plans on both so I really don't worry about the amount of data used. Recently I took my eight year old daughter and her two year old sister to Walt Disney World. It's a seven and a half hour trip each direction. Those devices got a workout.
Note that device is a Woogie that is from Griffin Technology and is only $20, you won't be afraid to let a child have your expensive phone. http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/woogie
Another big data usage for me is the XM radio app. I have XM radio in the car and have come to like it, so I got the app. Now, there are days where I kick on XM at work with my iPhone in one of these docking radios.
