Ok one last post from boring me. lol! I googled around and there is a bug wherein the hotspot thing will disappear after an update. You can reset it by tapping where it is supposed to be, or if it is gone you have to I think reset the network settings. It was discussed in a blog article that was put up only a few days ago.
Take care all.
