On my old TP2, I averaged 11-12GB per month and that was with VERY MINDFUL monitoring of my data usage. All you need to do is look at a few YouTube videos and download a few songs and a movie or two plus stream a few tv shows online, and before you know it, you've exceeded 10gigs a month. A lot of these people posting outrageous number, of course, are idiots who are taking advantage and doing things like downloading dozens upon dozens of movies, tv shows, entire cds, torrents, and whatever else. Those few a**holes are going to screw things over for everyone else. Before the EVO even came out, I knew this was going to happen... I was just wondering how soon.

It's people like you that ruin it for everyone else. If getting a smartphone prevents you from getting internet at home then you should change your priorities. It's not a necessity to have a smartphone. If you can't afford both then be smart. Sprint has a right to cut you off if they think your abusing their service and I think going over 8gb on a phone is abusing. Your one example of why att switched their data plans. Cmon dude. Have common sense. 12gb on a cell phone? I don't blame sprint one bit for switching to tiered data.
