Data Plans, how many mb you use per day?

[Milli]

Hello,

I was wondering how many mb's you guys run through daily and how often do you use the internet/messenger

for example would 10mb a day suffice? how many instant messages or web pages could i view for that?

Thanks, just looking to compare to see what would be good for me, my 8525 arrives friday :)

could be anywhere from 21 to 51 mb in a day depending on what i find while browsing for things to install on my Vario II. if it's alot of graphics and downloads like themes and such from Wisebar's site then expect a 50mb day. if it's only browsing here and 4winmobile then closer to 20mb assuming any downloads i do aren't roms for the vaior or any of my other phones

thanks for the reply

i wont be doing much downloading from it except for the occasional mp3, other than that just browsing the net and using aim/msn

do you know how much data an aim/msn message consumes?

do you know how much data an aim/msn message consumes?It depends on your needs.

I only use it for updating the weather (~ 5kb a time), some instant messaging and some tv text (app I wrote since my tv has no text :') )

I've got a 50Mb limit a month and I use SPB GPRS monitor to monitor my usage.
Last month I've been using it not a lot, because I wanted to be sure that I would not get some suprises on my monthly bill. 10 Mb a month is not that much. But consider using your WIFI too when you're close to a WIFI hotspot.

IM doesn't consume that much, it's more the MP3's. If you've 10 MB a month, than you can download maybe 2 MP3's....
Though I must say that downloading MP3's is not something you should do with your PDA. But that's just my personal opinion.

^Its 10mb a day not a month stated in my first post, although there is a 50mb a day package too i was considering

Im not contemplating downloading a lot of mp3's, but im sure there will be times on the go when i cant get to a wi-fi spot and need to download one.

50 mb a day, would that cover a fair amount of msn/aim and web browsing in one day?

i have no clue about these bandwidth monitors so im not sure how much websites take up(on average)

i can use upto 150mb a day but i also use spb GPRS monitor to make sure i don't go to mad!
