This is something that probably no one knows, but do you what constitutes to much data?
"Too much data" is the exact amount you've downloaded to cause AT&T to notice you

Seriously, I've had two 3G phones (Nokia 6555, now an LG Shine) and I typically stream last.fm on my N800 on the 15 minute drive to work. I think last month, my downloads was in the range of 300 MB for the month.

It may be against AT&T AUP, but that defense is getting slippery, given the new 3G iphone, the LG VU, and other 3G enabled phones coming on the market. I'm really not worried about it.

The Media-Net packages are for consumer phones (non-smart phones). You cannot get the PDA packages for consumer phones. So, you have to 'settle' for Media-Net unlimited for $15/mo
