How about bluetooth? Does wifi tethering turn off the bluetooth radio?

I ask because I decided to try VZW's 3G Hotspot service for a week while I go out of town. So far I hate it.
1) turning the 3G Hotspot turns off the bluetooth radio. I like to listen to music/podcasts/etc at work while having my personal laptop connect to the hotspot. Cannot do this with the 3G Hotspot.
2) the 3G Hotspot shuts off when the screen turns off.

On my VZW Touch Pro 2 I was able to do all the above.

On thing I like about the 3G Hotspot is that it runs in infrastructure mode and supports WPA.
