Browsing the app store the other day and downloaded this Onavo app which claims "Save up to 80% on your iPhone/iPad data plan".
Wasnt 100% convinced but after a day or so of running it it appears to actually work. Doesnt cover streaming of audio\video but although i spent most of yesterday on a wifi connection by the end of the day out of the 4mb of browsing via O2 it had claimed to save me 1.5mb. If you are on a 500mb limit this could make things a fair bit better.
Seems to redirect your browsing and other stuff via their servers and compress but not noticed any impact on quality or times.
App Store - Onavo - Data Usage, Get More Out of Your Mobile Data Plan
Edit...one thing to note...if you tether then it wont allow you to do that for some reason.
