Ive been looking for an app which helps me to handle my mothly mobile Budget.

For example I have 100min, 100Sms for free and 1GB data until slowing to gprs per month.

Now what Iam looking for is an widget, which counts Call-time outgoing, SMS outgoing and the mobile data volume per month.
Also an option, where i can select the reset date would be cool

For exp.

----------------------
Call Time:
Send SMS:
Traffic:
Reset date:
----------------------

sorry for my bad english skills

That idea make sense, but.. we never know which tarification tricks and issues may be used by various operators, so it's easy to get wrong counters.
As an example - I have 4000 minutes per month for calls to operators A,B,C and D, and 500 minutes for calls to operators E,F and G. Or some SMS messages (to some special numbers) are free and will not be counted by provider, but how will the software get the knowledge about all that?

As a choice, try to ask operator whether they have USSD-number for the query of your balance, with details of remaining SMS, MMS, calls and traffic. My operator, for example, does have such USSD-number and if so, you can use USSD-widget to get the output of the query to your desktop, automatically updated.
