Since AT&T dropped unlimited data in favor of tiered data caps, though, users have struggled to understand data usage, and now AT&T is faced with a law suit accusing it of systematically overcharging customers."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1297444993.usr105634.jpg" style="margin-left: 50px; margin-right: 50px;" /></p><p>DataMan is what the author suggests, and it sells for $1.99 USD in the iTunes store [<a href="http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=VoxLcfp5Si4&subid=&offerid=177776.1&type=10&tmpid=3909&RD_PARM1=http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dataman-real-time-data-usage/id393282873?mt=8" target="_blank">affiliate link</a>]. You can also get the free lite version [<a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dataman-lite-real-time-data/id404513413?mt=8" target="_blank">link</a>] if you just want to test it out before getting the full version that allows more functionality and "more precise" monitoring, as you can see in the image above. I still have the unlimited data plan so I don't worry too much about it, but it appears this app can really break it down for you if you need specifics. What do you use to track your data?</p>
