If you jailbreak your phone you can get free hotspot in the Cydia store. It's easy to do yet a pain in the ass at the same time :/

I was under the impression that even if you do this AT&T recognizes the numbers of the packets coming and going from your phone...has that changed? I haven't jail broken this phone yet but im not against it.

From what I understand, it's not a sure thing if you get an app that sets up an ad hoc network on your laptop and has your phone wirelessly connect to it. Supposedly many people do it no problem. I do it on Verizon no problem, but I managed to snag a hotspot app that snuck under apples radar. I downloaded it before they yanked it from the app store so I didn't have jailbreak.
