Re: sprint capping "unlimited" data

I want to know how to even do that much data usage in a month! At least on a phone, most I've ever been able to muster up is 3gb...

With both me and my wife on the plan now I can forsee both of us together going over 5 in a month but so far it still hasn't happened, that is a lot of usage to me.
