ATT now supports tethering. Initial plan is 4G @ 45$ per month and enables tethering (Personal hotspot). When activated by the carrier, your tethering option becomes a personal hotspot feature.
I activated the service and found it worked well with my computers pairing through bluetooth or using the USB cable.
Be forewarned - the bluetooth pairing DOES NOT work with other IOS devices. IOS devices cannot pair, therefore you cannot use a 3GS phone as a hotspot for an iPad. Nor can you physically connect an iPhone with an iPad.
If you have an iPhone 4, it broadcasts the carrier data feed as a wifi signal detectable by your other devices. No bluetooth conflicts to be concerned with.
