Re: sprint 5g cap on TP2?

Wow @ some of the responses on here. Look I know the data cap debate has been going on for sometime but chastising someone because they downloadeded a lot more than the TOA permits does not entitle you to make siren noises and shout "pull over it's the effin data police".

We all come here downloading these awesome cabs that mods have posted and use them to convert our phones into routers and try to "hide" ourselves from using the web from sprint. Everyone who posted in this thread is equally guilty of it so you can all take your left hand and slap the back of your right one on that.

To keep the answer simple, download like a pirate and keep to the code. If you're so worried about charges on sprints network then know your download limits. Don't go torrenting the next bangbus episode or the new pearl jam cd if you can simply take 10 minutes out of your time at home and use your other high speed connection. If you are downloading half a gig a day, you better beleive you are on a watch list and when you get caught it will not be good. The TOA bandwidth limit is more like a guideline and that is if you push for an inch and ask for a mile, then sooner or later someone will pump the brakes on you. But if you are casual about it then you should not have to worry.

We might not have this free ride for long with all the new features and mods that can be made in the Windows Mobile operating system. I know I use my phone almost the same as I do my laptop and while at work (yes when I should not be on my phone) I am still listening to Slacker radio or checking facebook/email.

This post is just me throwing my two pennies at the dead horse on the matter. But it's a nice rule of thumb.
