Probably the best thing to do is provide a first-run-only dialogue which will ask the user whether he wants data turned on or off, with a full explanation of the pros and cons. If the user chooses "Off" on the first-run dialogue, no data will have been sent.

The reason I say this is because I want to try and protect you against a backlash like that which has happened with the PR1.2 compulsory My Nokia registration. For some people, being able to unsubscribe or to turn off data later isn't good enough - they want to have never subscribed or sent any data.
You are so totally right First run screen (and then pref) it is.
