My husband's phone bill shows data usage of small amounts at 2 to 3 minute intervals at various times of the day. He says he knows nothing about instant messaging and only uses the Google maps once in awhile. Is there any way this data usage is some kind of update taking place unknown to him or is it instant messaging and he is not telling the truth? I want to make sure before I make any accusations. He has been caught text messaging other women before and knows that I can catch that. His phone is a Blackberry 8330. Thank you for your help.

Hi,
The Blackberry is a device that is always making data connections to have email delivered to the device. It does this at various times throughout the day. Also, if you have any programs such as Weatherbug or another weather program, it is always checking the latest conditions every 15 to 30 minutes. It can be set by the user to check at various times. You should not jump the gun and start thinking the worst in him, it's just his phone checking the weather or email. I hope I set your mind at ease a little bit.

I agree ... this could be updates on any number of apps. I would give him the benefit of the doubt in this case.
