Anyone have some real-world numbers for me?

This isn't a precise one, but its 15 quid for 3Gig, and the costs are coming down fairly fast.
So I am hoping that by the time the N900 comes out it will be 15 quid for 10G, whereas it's about 30quid a month at the moment.
The main problem is that roaming costs are still nasty, esp outside the EU

Of course if you are in the US I would expect much higher costs, as the mobile infrastructure there is quite a few years behind everywhere else, so they haven't screwed everyone for as long yet for the upgrade costs ;-)
