so we're not sure if he can connect the phone to the laptop for internet surfing like I can on Sprint's HTC Diamond with MightyRom
can he use the internet sharing app(phone as a modem) and not get charged? (does this Rom have it installed and tweaked)
would appreciate any advice on this

No Data Plan = No Phone as modem. The concept of Phone As Modem is that you are using the phone's data plan to provide internet.
IF he gets the data plan, then your second concern comes into play. ATT/Sprint/etc all want you to pay extra for phone as modem usage. The "fix" you speak of basically has your phone pass on the data without "dialing" into the phone companies tethered data plan. I'm over simplifying a bit but hopefully you get the idea. IF you you get the unlimited data plan, I persoanlly am a fan of June Fabrics PDANet application for providing this functionality as it has nice bells and whistles, but there are a number of applications that provide what you're looking for.
Hope I helped, I'm a complete nube when it comes to flashing but can at least help out with the simple stuff.
