there wouldn't be any downtime... the swap from 5gb to 20gb would be an administrative change on their end, no involvement of powertel. my guess is that it would take a couple of days to process at the very most. keep in mind, though, that the monthly allowances are based on a pro-rata model... so if you upgrade part way through your billing cycle, you'll only get part of the new allowance until the billing cycle ticks over to the new month (but then you'd only pay part of the fee too, so financially it is a fair system) the pro-rata quota is something like: (n/30)*q, where n is the days remaining until your new billing cycle, and q is your new quota. The pro-rata fee is the same equation
