Actually DAVE (in the tone of Seinfeld to Newman), the 3.1.2 also has a carrier update file, which I have not explored yet...
But to answer your question, the DAY ATT offers a tethering plan for the iPhone yes I will:
1) Upgrade to the latest OS
2) Pay for the tethering plan
My issue is not "to get something free", it's the ability to use something the phone was built for... even if ATT tacks another $40 a month to my bill I'll pay it.. I just do not want to lose the functionality...
And for the record, I disagree being prohibited by the developer agreement...

iPhone OS 3.1.1 did make it, on iPod touch.
iPhone OS 3.1.2 brings builds for iPhone and iPod touch back into sync.
As it is an incremental update to 3.1.x, I'm quite sure there will be
little to report. However, if you are specifically looking for
individuals having problems with 3.1.2, I'm absolutely certain they'll
be able to be found.
I'm glad you're apparently content to apparently not ever upgrade your
iPhone again simply because it is technically possible to do something
prohibited by both your developer agreement with Apple, and AT&T's
terms of service.
When AT&T rolls out an officially supported tethering plan later this
year[1], will you pay for it? Or will you stay on 3.0.1, even at the
cost of exposing yourself to security vulnerabilities, because
tethering "works fine"?
Sorry to sound snarky, but only as much as your own message.
