    50G Download limit

    Telstra cancelled my 25G download plan and replaced it with a 50G plan for the same price. ($49.95) What on earth can I do with 50G? I would have to be downloading 24/7. Any suggestions? Jim

    once you get into it, 50gb can disappear in days, i'm currently on a 500gb per month limit, i never reach it, but occasionally get past half

    but for most people, your plan will be heaps more than you will use

    setup some hardware to stream off the net, it is easy to reach 50gig. I have 100gig but rarely used more than 60gig.

    I was happy with 25G for ages - and then I purchased an iPad. This month I downloaded way too much stuff for it - and blew my limit 1 week into the month!

    I have 'upgraded' to a 50G limit and am sure that I will be using a lot of that.

    Pffft! Colour? Why would you ever need colour? I had a Dick Smith System 80 (a knock off of the Tandy TRS80) with 64kB of RAM (of which only KB were usable). Admittedly I spent nearly $1000 for two 1.MB floppy drives to make it more usable.
