But if I don't use 200MB of data...damn, my monthly bill might go DOWN.  |
Login to your account and you can see a sweet graph of past usage. I average 100 mb/month. It's under the 'data usage' option.

2) I assume accessing the Internet via wifi - while here at home, my Mom's house and various places around town - doesn't count toward that, right? Just when using the 3G/EDGE?

Correct. Wi-Fi use doesn't count, only when using the cell towers.
I think the new plans are fantastic. Sure, you can't take a tethering option and replace your home Internet bill, but for the normal user it's a great option. Especially the part about upgrading your plan retroactively in the event you go over. No more pro-rated garbage if you don't want it.
