    I'll change to off topic then.

    The weather here is much better than in New Zealand.

    But we aren't in the off topic thread any more.

    Weather is warmer than in New Zealand but cool by Brisbane standards.

    Back on topic for this thread, I have used 16megs in the 24 hours since I have been back in Australia.

    I normally go through that when I wake up in the morning just by downloading e-mails from a certain moderator on this forum

    Re: Mobile Data usage volumes

    I have a Telstra 12G prepaid microsim for the iPad (lasts for 12 months)...

    ... did not use the 12G of data in 12 months, however there was some WiFi use, in that mix.

    I have a 2GB plan on my phone which is almost always nearly gone at the end of the month (Virgin's excess usage charges make sure of that)...

    For out and about I have a 1GB USB modem (also Virgin) for $10 to use with my MacBook Air... That one usually comes close but on the rare occasion I do go over I can buy an extra GB for $15 of I need it...

    And finally on the home broadband front we have another USB stick (Virgin again) that has 10GB for $39 which NEVER lasts a full month. Again I can buy more of I really need it...

    Home broadband (through a WiFI router) and my mobile are pretty much on 24/7 (barring flying time) so I don't think I do too bad
