Hi Guys,
I have a PPC-6700 with the unlimited data plan. How can I find out how much data usage I have done since I got the phone or in the last couple of days? I have been tethering on it quite a bit and don’t want to be hit with a data usage charge.

1GB/day is very easy to hit with just a little video streaming. AKA "Sprint TV".
Heck, 1GB/Day is easy to do with email :p - send 4 256mb photos and hey presto, 1GB.
Edit: My "life" Data RX:556564 KBytes TX:085631 KBytes - I make that as 556MB and 86MB, and franky those numbers are not even close to right, so it either wraps, or its doing some funny accounting there.

I believe the "life" Data RX will reset it back to 0 after it reaches 10GB,this was my past experience.

Yep sounds right. I'm not sure of my math there anyway, mine may have been at 5.5gb :D
Anyway, bottom line is, pretty much have a blast and don't sweat it.
