What is data service?
When you use the WAP or Internet browsers to download ringtones, games,
get news, weather, sports and travel information, or when you use email
messaging, you are using data services.
What are the benefits to the plan?
You can better manage your monthly cellular spending by signing up for a plan. Data service is available for all postpaid accounts so even if you do not have a data plan, you can still access data on your phone.
Data usage without a data plan is charged at $0.015/kb. These charges can quickly add up, so if you plan on using data on your phone a data plan is a smart choice.†

How much data am I using?
The following chart gives some examples of data usage for typical activities. This only a guide and cannot be used for billing purposes.
Audio and video streaming (i.e. watching a youtube video, listening to online music or radio) use large amounts of data. You may also use data without realizing it as your computer may do automatic upgrades in the background. For example Microsoft Windows, anti-virus software or music sharing sites (i.e. LimeWire) will check online for updates or virus definitions.
