wats up guys im a verizon customer and was thinking about getting a sling box to use with my 6700..

now i have heard of verizon cuztomers being terminated because of high data usage with sling box i heard over 10 gb ur done...

so i was wondering how much data does sling box actually use in a certain time frame..im just curious.. im curious to know if anyone can tell me how much data is being used by sling box in a half an hour of watching tv on my ppc

also if im on a wifi connection does that still take from my data plan?? i dont think it does but i just wanna be sure..

i would mostly use sling box on my breaks at work..and there is a wifi connection right by there..so if i can use the wifi w/o taking anything from my data plan i would def. get sling box..im just looking for some info..can anyone help me?

WIFI doesn't use anything from your DATA Plan. As for how much data is being used, it depends on how long you have it on. I have the vision plan with Sprint and watch TV on it for hours. They haven't told me anything yet so I dont know why they would cancel you.

I thought that if you get the "Unlimited" plan, you could use it as much as you want.

"unlimited" is a term loosely thrown around these days by big corporations...
im willing to bet theres a limited amount of data for us sprint users too.
