There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

Bacon is the candy bar of meats!

Only the dead have seen the end of war!

Agree about video. 1.5 gigs is nothing for a video, even one that's compressed. An flv file (which is what's used on YouTube) that's several minutes long can be 100 to 200 megs.

Also, could you have inadvertently started running a backup program that stores your backed up files on your drive?

Yep. Youtube, Netflix, or maybe some video or video site that does not have good compression.

Especially if the phone's settings are wrong, and Wi-Fi doesn't kick in when in range of home, or other hot-spots, so all the Internet data is going over the 3G/4G carrier 24/7...

Or conversely, the phone is acting as a Wi-Fi hotspot, and other devices are getting onto the net over 3G/4G through it.
I promise not to duck.

Another possibility, her phone might have done some big app store auto-updates. All the apps she has, if it's a gig or two of them, and most of them had updates, it just downloads the whole app again and re-installs it.

Kids love the apps/games and tend to load up the phones with them. Which then means lots of updates if the phone checked in with the apple app store, and then saw all the updates..
