Vita's 3G Data Cap - Your Mileage May Vary

So, in Japan the 20Mb limit might be a local limit and western telcos may well offer more, or have a variety of caps depending on how much you want to pay.

I'm not in the least bit worried personally and think the stink about the Japanese cap is a kneejerk reaction from tech savvy folk used to big data limits. Non-technical types picking up a Vita will probably be glad they can't run up big bills.
