A lot of websites also look at gateways instead of personal IP's since a lot of people have dynamic IP addresses. Changing gateways is a bit more tough, unless you're going into another area (i.e. switching cell towers) or change ISP in the same area (i.e. roaming). Even then many websites don't enforce these as harshly, unless its obvious that someone is abusing the system and sharing their logins with a whole lot of people. Usually you change IPs whenever you disconnect and reconnect to the data network. It shouldn't change while you're idling, unless you're on the move. Even then I'm pretty sure CDMA technology handles hand-off pretty well, so you should be considered constantly connected on the same IP while moving across coverage of different towers.
