how much of your phone bill comes under BIS charges? Is it too much?
I have 2 data plans. it's almost necessary, a 3GB BIS and a 12GB Carrier. The 12GB is standard for most smartphones here, and blackberry users top up additional $$ for BIS. I use the carrier data plan to watch youtube videos as well as connect my laptop to the internet when i'm out. You cannot tether with purely a BIS subscription and you cannot watch youtube videos without incurring huge costs.
Currently, BIS accounts for 40% of my total bill. My friends on other OSes pay almost half of what I pay every month. I know BIS has data compression and all, but it's really impossible to bust 12GB carrier limit even if you stream data on a daily basis together with wifi hotspot for your other devices. Some even have enough to "share" the data with their ipads (ie, top up a few bucks a month for a data simcard for their ipad).
So here is my question. How much do you pay for your BIS, and as a percentage of your total bill? At this current point in time, are BIS services really worth that much?
