Actually it performs full background automatic update even while connected via GPRS. Unlimited data plan is not available for my contract, so it costs me - ~10Mb per $.32 = $3 a time. Do that 3 times a day when no wifi is nearby and $10 is gone. Let that happen four times a month - and there is $40. Totalling ~$150 for 3.5 months i own n900. Sounds no good? No one will compensate me that.
I could understand 1 month, but why on earth did you let it happen 3.5months in a row? Common sense would tell me "if this app caused me to go over my 1st month, I'm going to uninstall this application (or disable it) so it doesnt happen again, and then report this bug"
