According to the Sprint website, the 5GB cap only applies to the "
Mobile Broadband Connection Plans" which are for the broadband cards for laptops; the PDA plans are not limited.

All of the discussions I have seen on DSLReports regarding this have been from Mobile Broadband Plan users, not from PDA users. At least for now, there appears to be no cap on data for phone plans.

Regardless, you could use that amount of data each hour, 12 hours per day, 30 days per month, and not go over 5GB.
