Apple recently (and more specifically, AT&T) set a cap around Monday, or early this week; this cap ended up being a 20MB download cap. Now when you think about it, downloading 20MB over the air is quite a bit.

But I wonder one thing. Will this cap also be used for individual smaller files. If I were to download 20MB in separate files at one time, would they still set the cap?

As of right now, I just hope this will not be moving over to their plans that use their 3G networks cards, like in netbooks/laptops. If the same cap came to those devices, I can see a lot of trouble coming up soon.

What do you think of this cap AT&T put on? Will it affect you and your download habits via the air?
