So far I've downloaded 12GBs in 10 days. (Including during the day)

Anybody beat that?...:p

Must be all that porn downloads... I do have one of the higher Wireless Packages though and used quiet a bit of normal bandwidth

So I decided to try out this service after reports by some of my relatives that it actually does work. I downloaded a 700MB ISO file and I noticed that my "Downloaded" usage went up by 700MB in the report, but the "Data Remaining" usage did not go down. Is this supposed to happen? I'm not in the mood for another 2.5K bill because of iBurst negligence.

Yes, as long as the "Remaining data" doesn't move, all is well. The "Downloaded" data includes the "Midnight" and "Day" usage.

Do what I do, log in onto the iBurst site at 00h05. Write down the "Total" and also the "Remaining" data.

Download whatever you want and disconnect before 07h55.

Then check your "Remaining" and "Total" again. If all went well, your "Remaining" should be exactly the same as when you logged in at 00h05.

I've been doing this for the last 11 days and it's been accurate. No data has been "lost/stolen".

iBoss seems to be doing his job well lately and Bubbles too...;)

Nice to have some compliments from you Madhawk. Now I need some good words from Zombiepriest and Dusk and I vow not to have sex for the next year.

"This video contains content from Constantin Film, who has blocked it on copyright grounds."

Who the hell is Constantin Film? The owners of the movie "Downfall"?

So it's okay to do a parody with the iPad, but not iBurst....:confused:

Interesting find.
Had similar issue, when I wanted to watch one of MJ's video clips, it said: "Copyright permission for your country forbids to view this video. Sorry. Go away."

I maybe Hitler videos are not permitted in SA or can be: "You didn't won this war (WW2), you don't deserve it." I think it is rather former. Also can be for placing of your name at end of movie.
Who knows.

As Bubbles told me, he is only a monkey and doesn't understand this stuff. He also added that his granddad told him not to swing in someone else's tree...

I think Bubbles would prefer the term ape.

Just a thought:

Jannie disappears and a magic monkey/ape appears whom for no apparent reason flips a random switch to save the world. What would the odds be of Bubbles being Jannie in a hired monkey suite?
