i wud say USB (not only can i use my internet but it also keep the phone charging so it doesnt drain the battery) only drawback is u have to carry a cable around!
and last option should for me is BT, but i text alot so my battery might me dead by the time i am done using the net!!!

i tried using option one back in November just to see how fast the connection was, and i must admit, it was way faster than my home's comcast cable internet. advantage i saw was that it charged the phone the same time as me getting a connection if ever i needed a connection to check emails.

haven't tried any other way...but would also be interested in the difference speedwise tho.

BT because battery drain is less than wi-fi.

Any instructions on connecting TP2 via bluetooth?

Thanks!!

HTC Wifi Router. Works with any Wifi enabled device. An Ipod Touch doesn't have a USB port but will work fine on Wifi using Wifi Router. Most versatile program in my opinion.

Wifi. I get frustrated trying to get my usb-tethering method to work sometimes. Most of the time I just whip out the wifi and call it a day, no bee essin around, works every single time I use it.

wifi is the easiest and best imo, but i've tried all 3 and usb gets faster results.

really? maybe its because of your area? for me wifi gets me better results.
but i have real bad service and when i use wifi i can put it in a spot where i get good service, plug it into the charger and blamo i get wifi :)
thats why wifi is best for me.

Sorry noob tethering wannabe here: Is the only difference between wifi tethering & usb is the cable?

Theoretically you are using the same network right?
