Sooo, I can leave it at this or should I keep going? And what would keep going mean? (I mean other than having a full root).

For all sakes and purposes I don't mind going further if I can learn to develop for mobile OS's or atleast hack them. Yes i do program but for open systems.

But for starters i just want the hotspot up and running which i have not been able to do so far. Any insights?

Again, you guys are great.

PS. I'll stick with your suggested rooting methods and point anyone and everyone there.
The S-Off is what you want.
I'm thinking the .93 hboot is courtesy of the unrevoked team-must be the version that gets installed when you run their root method.
Regardless, since you have S-Off (Security Off) your nand is unlocked and you have what is considered "full root". Congrats.

For wireless tethering the only reason you would use the Sprint Hotspot would be if you were paying for it.
Wireless Tether by Muller, Lemons, and Buxton from the Market will allow you to tether for free.
It is included in a lot of custom ROMs.
Did you flash a custom ROM or at least the rooted version of Stock?
If you did then that app should work.
