some service providers dont like tethering and if you tell them that you are tethering your computer to your phone they freak out, cancel your service and hit you with early out fees.  So my advice is not to tell them.

There wasn't any lag for the whole game which I found pretty amazing. He told me he had also played WoW without a problem too. I'll have to ask him what his data usage looks like :o
