I'm at 57mb at 10 days into the billing month, so roughly the same as you. Been using the Pearl as a modem almost daily. Felt like I was pushing it too. But could be worse hehe

I'm wondering if there really is a limit to the cingular unlimited bis plan. Just heard rumors and also the other day it wasn't working worth crap then it kicked back in hehe

What uses the most data? Can you stream anything like music or video?

Varies between 100 - 150 mb a month. So far no problems from cingular. I could easily blow that out of the water if I tethered though.

What about email... What's faster on a BIS plan? Pop3 or hotmail? I heard g-mail was suppose to be the fastest. Any ideas?

Just hate waiting 10-15 minutes for it to come when my buddies VZW trio gets it in a minute. Trying to find a way around this besides BES.

If you really want to test unlimited claims, install an app like MFRadio (MFRadio - mobile streaming radio) or radioBee, find a working radio station and just let that puppy stream radio all day long, day after day. You could use 30mb an hour more or less doing that, I did a blog writeup on a S60 and used about 80mb data for a 2 hour set I listened to one day...
