Network Location - data use on Orange

Hi all
I have a HTC Wildfire S on Orange but only have 80meg a month data allowance, which is fine as I use WIFI at home.
My question is though, if I turn on the Location Service and leave it on, will this quickly use up my 80mb? how much data does Location service use? I want to know this because Location comes in handy for Facebook check-ins and local weather
Thanks

It'll be negligible; probably no more than 10-15MB per month if you use it about 10 times a day.

you can get an app to monitor it. I use 3g watchdog, which lets you put in your billing date and allowance and lets you know if you're getting close.

I agree with Eddy, it's likely to be tiddly.
