I don't have an unlimited data plan, so I was quite frustrated to see that my G1 was consuming lots of megabytes in the background (also draining battery too fast).

To solve this problem, I wrote this iptables front-end to block undesired applications from accessing the GRPS/3G network (white-list based), while keeping unrestricted access to the Wifi network.
The goal is to create an iptables front-end, but currently this is the only feature available.

IMPORTANT: Root access required - this was tested on a G1 with JFv1.50

I didn't publish it on market yet, but you can download the ".apk" from the site and install it.
After installing, press menu an click Help for a (very) brief explanation on how to use it.

I hope this will help other people.

How does one see how much bandwidth their phone is using?

I use a nice application called NetSentry to monitor bandwidth usage (its available on Market).
