First month data on iPhone user data consumption show that 1.2 percent of iPhone customers used more than 1 GByte of data, 95 percent used less than 500 MBytes, and 91.2% used less than 100 MBytes, says Elizabeth Hamilton, Rogers Wireless director, and reported by by Sean Cooper, of engadget mobile.
Usage patterns might change with time. They typically do. But so far, at least, there doesn't seem to be a mismatch between usage caps and end user behavior. Over time, that likely will get to be a bigger problem, as consumption tends to rise with time and experience.
Roughly the same thing can be said of wired network broadband usage. Over time, usage will drift higher as more users start to routinely consume video.
