Since 7th October 2008 I've used 24.9GB (down) and 2.7GB (up) on an iPhone 3G then 3GS. Overall my usage averages to 638mb a month, but my usage is on the rise as according to both o2 and my own calculations I was at 1.6GB used this month with about a week to go.

Got a 1GB allowance on Orange and I usually use all of it (1024MB)... If not all of it, around 900MB - 950MB.

I only use about 30-50 meg per month. As I have 100 meg on contract that's okay.

Usually within range of a wifi though and I don't watch films on my phone - just web browsing.

The last 3 months has averaged out around 6.5 gig a month. Using the TuneIn Radio app on my iPhone eats most of this. Using 3's one plan though, so no additional data costs.

Probably about 3MB/day of 3G usage, would be much more if it wasn't for WiFi.

Around 15GB per month (inc Wi-Fi) on Three AYCE.

If i'm away from home and have to tether for the whole month it'll be closer to around 50-60GB.

I use about 6 - 7GB per month over 3G. Usually streaming videos to and from work with Crunchyroll or YouTube and regularly streaming music on di.fm or from my home computer with Subsonic. I use it a lot so I can't imagine what people must be doing to break the 10GB barrier.

750MB - 1GB via GiffGaff's unlimited Data. Mainly podcast downloads while I'm away from home and map useage. Also some browsing and weather checking etc.

I use about 3-4GB mainly with Intune radio and YouTube but most days network location uses 50MB which seems excessive.

I find Tunein Radio great, if I have to work in the lab I have internet radio on for a couple of hours and still only uses about 50-80 Mbs and can listen in to radio usually from USA or Scotland.

I used to use around 3GB/month with my HTC Desire on T-Mobile, but since I've upgraded to a Samsung Galaxy SII on Three, my data usage has gone up to around 5GB/month. I mainly use it for general web browsing, Tune-In Radio, music and (sometimes) video streaming.
