Do you know how things are measured in terms of kilobytes? I was told a data charge in Europe would be 14 cents for 10kb of data transferred. What is an average Email (few lines) in terms of kb?

The average email is about 15 to 20 kb (text only no pics), i would get a data package if I were you!

The average email on the BB is less than 2Kb.

OP - do you turn the phone off at night?

Good point... if there is something constantly going for data and the phone is 24/7 on it, data consumption would inflate tremendously...

There are many helpful thoughts and suggestions here, thanks! i'll be tracking my phone the next few days.

And a couple other responses:

My phone is off for 5 hours every night.
