The data plan is unlimited so does it really matter?

I'm not from the US so i don't have the unlimited plan, if I had it I wouldn't post that thread.
So people is there a way or isn't?
If you are connected to wifi, 3G should turn off. Something like SwitchPro Widget - Android app on AppBrain or one of the various other widgets that can disable data should disable 3G for you when not on wifi.
There are other apps that can disable data too, but switchpro is the first one that comes to mind.
If you want 3g totally off for a given period of time then turn off:
Menu => Settings => Wireless & network settings => Mobile network settings => Data enabled

On my Droid, when wifi is turned on it doesn't use 3G. Unless I am out range with the wifi..
