Sorry, just cannot get over current limits on various UK networks (and as for 150 MB in Oz, that's shameful). How much are you people paying for this privilege ?
I'm on a laptop, using a Three network dongle, paying 7.50/month and get an allowance of 15 GB a month. Yes, that's right, 15 GB. A year ago it was 5 GB for 7.50, 2 years ago 5 GB for 15 pounds.
I know I would not use that with just an iPhone alone - unless listening to streaming audio of some BBC station - possible, anyone? or using Spotify (yet another tenner on top) - but if it was being used with tethering, I'd be willing to drop to say 200 minutes of calls and 500 texts a month if they gave me 10 or 20 GB for data.
Fact is, you rich peeps with iPhones, the networks know you love your smartphone and charge as much as they can get away with for the minimum possible. If I was paying 30 quid or more, I'd feel completely ripped off.

Have to laugh...
