Get an iPhone.
I personally have never been able to go over my 300mb data plan
For speed, go the 4G option.

and FACETIME calls.

Skype works better on the 4G iPhone too.

Glad I could help.

Love you bearspice!

I'm hopng we can manage to do some facetime! That would be awesome to talk to you and Stoat!

4S, 4G, whatever.... as long as it's not the 4 X (XXXX), cos that's a Queensland Beer.

...and am I really such a data wuss?? Maybe I connect to Wifi a lot more than I do my mobile data ?

Well, I've opted for 3gb data, and I expect I'll be using the wifi during office hours. I'm excited.

Now, any cool apps to suggest?

There is this thread, but it is three years old.

Also, you get to have fun with Siri

Oh, but I wouldn't bother with Scruff or Growlr if I were you...

Also, a very handy app is Flashlight, which does just what the app is named. I use this one much more than I expected.

With data we switched from our unlimited to 4G shared. Using wifi at home and work our combined data usage is pretty minimal. (of course Madzie toasted her smart phone so she's on her old dinosaur one that doesn't use much anyway cause it can't).

The Flashlight app is one of the only ones I still use regularly. When I'm traveling, I use a couple more. But more and more, the apps were just fun toys that have little usefulness. (Admittedly, I'm glad I have some when they come in handy once a year or so.) I don't even use my phone much for music or pictures or video anymore. I mostly use it as a phone. 80% texting. 20% voice. Email once in a blue. Internet only if I'm not near a connected computer (5% of my existence).

Money's tight right now - so with that realization of my meager smart phone needs - I'm putting off my iPhone 5 purchase till at least mid-2013.
