I haven't played the game and don't intend to until the full game comes out in general access because I don't want spoilers from early access, but I'm really, really looking forward to this game.

One concern I have is, when looking at the requirements, it says I have to have 150 GB of storage space. I can deal with this from a storage space perspective, but this does cause me concern when it comes to downloading the game.

I have a 300 GB/Month bandwidth limit from my ISP. I haven't gone over that limit yet, but I do tend to come close to it when I download really big stuff. Using half that limit on one game will almost certainly put me over my limit. That said, I'm guessing that the files are compressed before I download them, so I'm guessing I wouldn't actually have to download 150 GB to get the game.

Do we have any idea just how big a download will be required to get the game? If it's something really big, will it be possible to pre-download parts of it in the months leading up to general release so I can still play on release day, but split the download across multiple months?

I wouldn't bet money on it that's for sure. They'll probably dump the entire game over and over again on us throughout EA.
