this is old and already in affect. if you go over 5gb sprint will know and shut your data usage off or notify you.

wow didn't know that, news to me.

this is crazy, how can they call it "unlimited" data, gotta watch how much data i use i guess now...

No, they'll charge you out the WAZOO if you go over so expect to fork over big $$$ for creeping over.

There is a $500 cap in place on the overage charges as well. That was a nice gesture I thought...

LOL, That is such a sweet thing for Sprint to do for us, only take $500

There is always the spending limit...

my friend has their cap at $150. My account has no cap at all :P lol

But my guess is its $150 a line and data cards may have different limits :/

Just make sure you use the right software and not what is included originally with your phone

All reports I've seen are that this cap is rarely enforced and certainly does not kick in with just one month's exceeding the cap. People still report regularly doing 10GB a month...
