Default How easy is it to thru 5GB of data....on an ipod touch?

I have been kicking around the idea of getting a Mifi unit and an ipod touch 64GB. I was wondering how easily it would be, using an ipod touch, to go thru 5GB of data?

I would LOVE to upgrade to a Storm 2 and find an app that allows the Storm 2 to be used as a wifi hotspot (like some WinMo and Android phones) but that doesn't seem possible. Going to ATT for the iphone is not an option either.

So what do you think? How easy is it to burn thru 5GB in a month on something like an ipod?

No flash on an iPod touch, you may have a hard time going through 5 gb, unless you are on YouTube all day long for a month.

well downloading music/apps/games/movie would be the quick way of doing it but 5 GB is good amount of data for just web browsing. Movies would be the fastest way to eat that data up

I use the net connection on my storm heavily and at most I hit 1.5 gigs by the end of a given month.
