Howd you do that?? I use 30GBs without Fail every month.. I ONLY use tethering for my home connection, I have no real internet service provider but my phone.. so needless to say, I use it a TON!..

I run XBOX Live daily to stream several Netflix movies, I use BitComet daily,i constantly download files from the web(cabs,roms,pics,videos,comp progs,etc) i surf a ton(i know this one doesnt use alot of MBs), yet I cant really get over the Hump of 30GBs

so youve never downloaded or installed anything that wasnt from ATT itself or MS MArketplace??
flashed a ROM?
changed arcsoft versions?
installed a theme found here @ ppcg?
used GV, Skype??(both not true VoIP, but considered VoIP by our carriers and thats a no no)
Edited your registry?
Changed a bootscreen?
Changed a program Icon or any of the sense icons?(slider,weather,etc)
Changed your taskbar??

-if you havent done any of things, Im suprised you dont HATE your phone lol-

those are all examples of things that "technically" void your warranty.. Heck, most carriers tell you if it doesnt comes from their website/carrier store or MS market - then its a 3rd party app and thats not allowed and a violation of terms... Hence, having to re-flash and -relock devices before taking them in for service...

Odds are youve done a million things that "technically" void your warranty..

For tethering, I tried to fight that fight - about it being theft... even up till recently ive maintained that it was theft-yes, even though I was doing it myself lmao.. but hey, now, Im not doing ANYthing to hide my usage, so I dont really feel bad that My Carrier, Sprint, doesnt do anything about it..
Yup it was 82gig, not 8.2gig. I just moved into a new house and can't afford cable yet, so I have been downloading movies and tv shows like mad.

I generally use my tether for just browsing, but as of late been downloading shit like crazy. Including updates for my PC and some PC games as well.

If you want I can get a picture of it, just seems silly to me (as internet usage seems like a really goofy thing to brag about, lol).

I dont really need a pic lol.. was just making sure you knew the difference.. How do you find the time honestly to download all that stuff.. I can only have about 3 or 4 things in BitComet at once without it toally killing my speeds and taking all day just for those things.. I dont alot of "set it and forget its" before i leave or goto sleep, things like that... Our tethering speeds arent that great, about 2mb/down regularly +/- ...

Re: 19G data this month already. should I be worried.

The 5GB cap is for Aircards or PAM connections. Plus if you are grandfathered into one of the older conn card plans there is no cap. Only since last July I think (2009) did they add the 5GB to 3g conn card plans.
If you are using stealth tehering then it looks like you are using the data from the phone which is fine, but anyone actually looking will notice something funny. lol
