Yep, I told them I was tethering. You think they don't know? And, I don't think everyone in the media wants MS to fail - he was just reporting what he'd heard himself.

I think they want you to legal-tether, so they can get an extra +$20/month from you

that's fine but WP7 doesn't even off that. That's the point. If you want to pay extra to legally tether you have to get an Android device or iPhone.

WP7 also doesn't have LTE, WiMax, or HSPA+ support so I guess I can kinda see the lack of tethering, but when I tether on my HD2 I get really fast speeds on HSDPA so it would still be cool.

But there is no legal/paid/legit tethering on WP7 at all, if you want to tether buy an Evo

I don't pay much attention to tethering since I don't use it, but I agree it should be an option. I fully believe that for WP7 to get to where it needs to be, it has to be able to do everything the competitors do- iOS and Android specifically. Pay developers to port their apps over to WP7 if they have to, add features constantly, etc. They have a good UI and NoDo is fast as hell so far, I really want to use the phone more but logemin, mlb at-bat, and WordsWithFriends need to come over asap.

I know that anyone can replace ^ those 3 apps with 3 of their own, or more. Like tethering. I've emailed the devs of all the apps I want and hope all of you do the same. People think its useless but trust me, they listen.

Tethering would be nice and I'm sure its in pipelines, but no deal breaker.

I bought is on day one as well but haven't made it my main phone yet. I also own an Android shift. So far I love the windows interface but miss some important apps that are keeping me from switching. I hope they come out. One was a. Sirius radio apps that's now out. The big ones still missing are smart dialer and being able to use as a hot spot
