pdanet will only tether a windoze or smack system to the droid. Those of us that would rather use pencil and paper than microsoft or apple are not supported.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Mar 9, 2010 at 3:20 PM, <a href="mailto:steve@brown.name">steve@brown.name</a> <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:scbrown3@gmail.com">scbrown3@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Being that the user controls Android, it's easy to work around that.<br>
They just do not ship the stock Android firmware with support for<br>
tethering. Once you root it, and install CyanogenMod, you can very<br>
easily tether over either WiFi or USB.<br></blockquote></div><div><br>I just recently bought a Droid through Verizon ($50 on amazon w 2yr contract!), and I was able to tether simply by installing PdaNet through the Android Market. It's a handy little app that lets you tether via usb or bluetooth and also has a bandwidth meter. However, after the free trial, it won't let you access stuff on port 433 and it is one of the more expensive apps in the market ($30 i think). <br>
