What's eating up my usage??
What causes a large amount of data to be used up over a short period of time? I don't watch movies or videos. My husband listened to a hockey game the other night but when I checked that did not take much at all. This happened once before and I don't know the cause. I purchased 3G and in I 48 hour period I went from 260 mb to 1911 mbs of usage.

Data is not used in real time, and you probably did use all that data, easily in 2 days if you don't have wifi.
please read this about data...

I read a tip about looking at all my Apps to see how much each one uses. I have a Text Now App that I use when traveling. I sent 2 pictures using that App. I have no idea about what type of usage a picture message uses. Could that be it?

Only you can tell that.... Please read the article, it includes how to diagnose which applications are using your data.

After seeing this post with the rate charts, and data usage overage charges, http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/data-plans.html?&WT.srch=1 It kinfa hits home how one seems to be paying so much for so little, especially when it seems one has lots of ghost data usage.
Sorry, just adding my two cents worth, unasked.
