carrier. I'm also waiting for final confirmation to see if it's possible to
determine whether the data usage on the phone can metered by whether it came
from tethering or local applications. Something like pdanet would show up as
a local application though.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>4G or not, I suspect this person's willing to pay the $10/mo for
the phone itself, which btw, is what Sprint claims you're actually paying for,
not the 4G....<BR><BR>Additionally, I *think* w/ 2.2 you will be able to
tether w/o root and w/o paying Sprint's PAM (Phone as Modem) plan. It's
a feature being added by google to the OS. (again...I
*THINK*).<BR><BR>As for getting dumped for rooting I doubt this is
likely. I have a Windows Mobile Touch Pro 2 on the SERO plan. 1.)
I've been running a custom ROM on it since I got it and 2.) even though SERO
doesn't allow Android (prior to october 1st and +$10/mo after which I do not
pay currently) I run xdandroid on my phone fairly regularly. they can't
tell what you do with your phone for the most part. I would just suggest
if you bust it you "loose" the phone as they probably won't be happy if they
got a rooted one in for support.<BR><BR>

differences - there's actually no 4G locally and it's not forecasted here
for quite a while. You also have the risk of your service being turned off
once Sprint determines that you've rooted their phone and are tethering
it.<BR><FONT
