is this alot?

I use GIGS monthly on 2 lines. (Work phone/personal) But im also using pandora in my car, work, etc. 500 megs is nothing.

Our Verizon account is 5 lines, 1 DX 4 Eris, 2100 min text/data

After tax its about 300 or so.

Our iPhones cost us a giant 60 a month, unlimited data/text + 1000 min on 1 line 500 on the other. the 700 min plan we'd need would cost us 160 if it wasnt employee priced.

SO i guess 360 per month

Yeah, I don't use Pandora, but I can see how it'd be easy to rack up a lot of data...

Yarp. Thats also like 7 lines btw. All of which are PDAs with unlimited data plans. I should of mentioned, we have 2 att phones as well. Its only a small portion because its employee lines, but still its a few bucks at least.

(same plan as NS only I get it cheaper thanks to my corporate overlords)

i just checked out of curiosity... on this billing month (since 8/19) my wife has only used 25 MB of data... i've done 254 MB.
so yeah, you probably can live happily with 500MB/mo as long as you stay away from last.fm and pandora when not near a wifi point

I guess if you're streaming a lot of audio like that it would eat up data. Why not just put some mp3s on shuffle?
