first, when i hooked it up to my computer to sync my contacts, it asked if i wanted to sync, do the hard drive thing, or tether. not in those words. but the tethering thing is what confused me, i had a TP and you needed a cab to "get that feature back".
second thing was that when i went into the settings for the sim, it said sim unlocked. would i still need to do the unlocker down the road if i want to use my phone elsewhere (when i'm traveling in another country)?

one last question, i've searched ebay, and only found one seller that carries a dock/cradle for the cdma version of the tp2, does any one know anywhere else i can find one?

thanks,

You are SIM unlocked for non US GSM carriers. You will only need the SIM/Security unlocker if you want to 1.) flash other radios or 2.) use US GSM services (AT&T/T-mobile).

The option for "Internet Sharing" is standard - although it will try to use PAM unless you tweak it.
