What is average when tethering? Does video use more, What drives up the use?

Depends on how you use your phone and what you're using it for. The biggest would most likely be downloading or streaming media. Unless you're running your homes network from your phone, you should be okay.. just keep an eye on your data usage each month so you have an idea of how much your using on average and don't go over. If you're rooted and using free wireless tether... as mentioned above, just don't go tethering your home network.

Do you pay for tether? ... or are you rooted?
I tether my Galaxy Tab/laptop every now and then when I can't grab a wifi signal for browsing the web... never had a problem.. I'm rooted and using free tether though.
