Anyone know if this is covered by Verizon's data plans?

Hey everyone. I talked to Verizon today and found out they have an unlimited data plan (duh) but it does not include tethering. They have a separate tethering plan.... So I'm just wondering if I have an unlimited data plan and i use the Wi-Fi router found here (http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=5889 or http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-...fi-router.html) will it just use my data plan?

SAID ANOTHER WAY:
Will the program let me tether through my data plan without a tether plan so i dont need to get a tether plan or get raped by VZW?

Pm sent. The way verizon tracks how much you tether is through the vzw connection program on your computer....not anything on your phone that I am aware of. AFAIK data is data is data to the phone itself.

I use WMWiFi, but keep in mind that "Unlimited" is 5 GB per month. Go over that and you are going to be paying out of the nose.
