Along with my justification for a MacBook Pro I'm also asking for a dedicated aircard. (IMO keeps threatening to take the one I'm using away and I need it for using the MBP off the network if I don't get permission to put it on). Can someone recommend a good one with a good plan that will work with both WIndows (in case I don't get the MBP) and MBP? Trying to cover every contingency here. ;o)
Thanks.
Paul

<DIV><FONT style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal; FONT-SIZE: 14px; FONT-STYLE: normal; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #f5f8f0">> </FONT>Largely concur. AT&T is, by some accounts, just about the last carrier who handles the iPhone to support tethering. I personally suspect it is because they had not been able separate the unlimited data plan from the data used during tethering (and billing)...</DIV>

<DIV><FONT style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal; FONT-SIZE: 14px; FONT-STYLE: normal; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #f5f8f0">> </FONT>I would be very interested to see how many more people start tethering with their iPhone vs tethering using a USB stick or a BlackBerry or otherwise. It has not really caught on with the BB. Is it because it is miserable to do so? The USB sticks require another gadget (and don't we all have enough cables and junk?). Both USB modem and BB have unlimited data plans for tethering yet I don't seem them lighting the world on fire. Would the iPhone tethering?</DIV>

<DIV><FONT style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal; FONT-SIZE: 14px; FONT-STYLE: normal; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #f5f8f0">> </FONT>I believe that the iPhone allows full usage while tethering back to the computer. I seem to recall that Palm, BlackBerry and Wince go dead while tethering. Is that the goose tethering needs? Otherwise it may be a tree falling in the woods making no sound.</DIV>
