I don't got any data plan. All repositories enabled. For me it wont normally check updates over gprs but this time i had used GPS and internet connection was left on after i had closed Nokia maps. Because i have all repositories enabled i got ~10 mb data transfer and itīs about 11€. Basically my own fault and itīs not too much but it still hurts :)

OK, how do I STOP app manager from updating in the background when I'm on a 3G/GSM connection?

good question.... I would like more control on when and how it updates. And maybe some optimization to reduce the bandwidth required!

I found the rate at which HAM looks for updates, it is located in
/var/lib/gconf/apps/hildon/update-notifier/%gconf.xml

The value is in minutes, default = 1440 = 24h

This will be usefull to convert mtime to readable and from readable to mtime.

http://unixtime-converter.com/

JUST BE CAREFUL!!
It converts "readible" time to unix timestamp(mtime), assuming the time is UTC+0000.
So please convert appropriatly to your timezone!
