SOFTWARE VERSION: 1.2009.41-10 STEPS TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM: 1. get an ordinary (i.e., limited) dataplan and use it 2. wait until end of billing period (day, week, whatever) EXPECTED OUTCOME: counter resets to zero and starts counting again ACTUAL OUTCOME: counter keeps growing, manual reset is required via the system gui REPRODUCIBILITY: always EXTRA SOFTWARE INSTALLED: n/a OTHER COMMENTS: when auto-resetting, it'd be a nice touch to store a history of recent usage data.

Please Andrea vote for your bug, we need it to be confirmed. I incredibly need the auto reset feature.

You can address it using "Alarmed" from Maemo Extras.
I reinforce Iván's suggestion for this app to use a similar mechanism as Alarmed uses to schedule its reset. AFAIK Alarmed is a GUI for the already installed alarmd daemon. I think it is onerous on the user to have to install another app for functionality that seems that is within the obvious sphere of concern of this one.
