I am posting this in the 2D forum since there was been some active discussion on 1G of data with 2D lately but it applied to all mobile carriers of course.

Is 1G of data enough each month for you?

I paid for 1G of data last month before I knew about the bonus and with that pack, changed my Internet access a bit viz.

I had the phone on all the time connected to the Internet the only time it was not doing 3G was at home or work. Even if a free wifi were available I would not usually connect because many of them has restrictive policies about what port traffic is allowed to traverse.

I would tether the phone to my tablet and surf with that, do some VoIP (Vonage mainly to the US), stream some music from Google Music, email of courss and other miscellaneous web activity. I wasn't streaming any video because there are no viable streaming video sites available in NZ and sites like Netflix etc, need much more hacking if you want to get them on your phone.

Anyway after a month I found that I had used about 600MB. So for me 1G is plenty.

I was just wondering what other people's experience were.
