Updating firmware via data network

Is it advisable to update my firmware on my SIII OTA with a 3G connection? I have unlimited data. Would it be ok to do this or am I safer to do it via wifi?
 
I've updated mine OTA on my data connection before, I'd still say its safer over wifi though.
 
Cheers, did you have any difficulties updating OTA. I take it I would need a fully charged battery to do so?

My battery wouldn't have been full as I was at work & it was about midday when I did it. Encountered no problems at all bud. I'd only recommend it to anyone if you have no alternative though (or are an impatient swine like me :D) mainly based on the fact I'd feel bad it if it messed up.

Aye, I'm at work just now, prob leave it til I get back to the house and do it via wifi. Cheers :cool:
