I find the hardest part about shopping for a internet or cellular service is trying to decide how much is enough. 1 Gig will easily satisfy 95% of peoples needs so the question is are you the 5% of people that do bandwidth intensive activities on the internet? To help wit this question you need to analyze what type of activitities you do on the internet and how often. Do you watch youtube videos each day or just occassionally? Do you down load multiple songs from places like iTunes everyday or just occassionally? Do you build websites or upload large size files to an online server everyday or just occassionally? If the answer to these are yes, every day then you are correct 1 gig is not enough. If you and your spouse only browse the web, retreive and send email with attachments and occasssionally download extrememly large files (100 Meg plus) then 1 gig is fine. Another means of determining if you need more than that is to find out how much you have used over the past several months from your current provider. good luck.
