I think that the caps will be temporary. T-Mo is just now releasing 3G. They probably don't want people slamming the service with downloads until they make sure it is stable. I foresee them moving the cap to a more iPhone like 5GB within a few months.
@epoch - I understand why they only want the G1 on a 3G network- imagine the swarm of unhappy users complaining about how slow the phone is without 3G. They don't want a repeat of the first iPhone. However, I do feel your pain- It seems like Cleveland / Buffalo / Pittsburgh is always the last place on earth to get anything (I lived there for most of my life).
