I have a 384 mb data plan (USD 5/month here in Uruguay), and it mostly works for my use case (mail, browsing & maps).
I only download or update apps on my home Wifi connection though, and I use Opera browser which does a lot of caching.
BTW I'm still amazed at the incredibly expensive plans in the U.S. (there are lots of threads here with comparisons, and the U.S. is among the most expensive). I pay USD 20/month for my contract (voice + SMS, and we don't pay for incoming calls, caller pays) plus USD 5 per 384 megabytes.
