Evo data usage

[LurkMoar]

been almost a month since launch so i'm curious.

Has you data usage gone up, down or stayed about the same?

also list your previous phone and average usage.

I've never paid attention to it. My last phone, like this one, had anunlimited data plan, so I really don't care how much I use, or don't use.

I had a Blackberry so it went waaaaay up! But before I had an iPhone, it was about the same as that.

I used 20+ gb this month

I had a Palm Pre.
That thing was data intensive.

It's called WebOS for a reason... the thing would collect random data all the freaking time.
I did web browse a lot on the Pre... it was smooth, even though it was small.

As for now, it's lower. I expect it to be higher when classes start.

Mine has stayed about the same..used a ton on the iPhone and use a ton on the Evo

I use slightly less than 4x the amount I used on my previous phone, which was a Blackberry.

Previous devices are in my signature as you can see by my devices I have always used a lot of data so I marked as about the same. I think with the EVO around I am using my lap top less.

Went from Pre to EVO. Data use about the same.

I had an unlimited "phone as modem" (PAM) plan from Sprint before getting the Evo.

I'm actually using more data on my Evo than I did on my laptop most months!

I'm paying for the Hotspot feature and I've used less than 1gb on my laptop... whereas I easily went over 5gb this past month. Heck, according to my Netcounter App, I've already sucked down over 3gb on my Evo in the past three days.

That's me surfing the forums, downloading/streaming video and audio podcasts, watching SprintTV, TV.com, and YouTube.

The new redesigned sprint site makes me want to kill baby bears and fukc trees. It's absolutely driving me ****ing insane. Where in the bloody **** do I check previous month usage? I've been on for almost 30 minutes. My meds can't be this ****ing strong...

I had a Pre before getting the Evo. My usage is definitely up. I browse the web a lot more now knowing I dont have to worry about every little thing I do killing the battery. People may complain about the Evos battery life, but compared to the Pre its fantastic.

curious because when the pre came out they forced everyone to get more expensive unlimited data plans. now a new phone comes out and again they are forcing more expensive data plans even though we're already paying for unlimited.
so i guess when better phones com out next year there will be another "super duper premium data" plan with "totally no doubt about it THIS time! unlimited data"
