Our Verizon reps tell us Bluetooth tethering technically isn't supported at all, and that cabled tethering is only supported for very light usage, like checking POP email. For anything else, they insist on a dedicated card for it to be "supported". Frankly, that's bull. The technology is perfectly capable of doing what's needed. I'm guessing poor firmware on the phones, or incompetence by the wireless carrier. The carrier has no incentive to improve their tethering and an incentive not to (sell more dedicated card services), so this doesn't surprise me. Maybe other carriers suck less? -- Ben ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
