Yep streaming a movie can be up to 3 GB for an HD movie--at least from what I've read about the netflix app on the Xbox 360 and about other streaming sources on PCs etc--I'd think it would be the same on the iPad, at least on WiFi. You get a lower quality stream over 3G so it uses less.
So unlimited is important if you stream a lot of video over 3G you may need it. If you don't and/or only stream on WiFi then most will probably never get close to the lower caps, much less the new 2GB cap for people not grandfathered in.
