Here we pay about 4 USD per MB after we used up the 20MB we get each

We can get a "unlimited" (only limited by the speed of 380kb/s) for 100
USD/month.
To compare, 100Mb/s sync fiber (unlimitedd, and with IP phone, static
public IP and IPTV) to the house cost around 80 USD/month but is not
available all places.
So, my conclusion is that Internet access over the mobile network is
practical when you really need to check something and you are far away
from a landline. For everything else, wifi has come to stay.
Your country may vary.
Here (UK) for $20 per month, you get a gigabyte at about 380K/s, or 3G
for $60. (in addition to the costs of a normal voice contract)
For me - that's pretty much good enough - unless I want to do streaming.
My conclusion is that it varies so enormously that generalisations
aren't really practical.
