Yes - whether or not your mobile plan comes with a data package is another story. In Canada, at least, 'tethering' ones phone via USB is very, very expensive. Most providers also differentiate whether or not the data is being requested via mobile web browser, through a proxy for email, or via gprs, etc, as is the case when tethering. Before you commit to a data plan, make sure that you determine whether or not 'tethering' is included in that data plan - it likely is not and you will be encounter a ginormous bill at the end of the month if you're not safe.
