Hotspot worked until the JB update this past week. I've used it for years with various phones on my unlimited data. Sometimes an update would cause either SVTP or Foxfi to quit working for a while but,
haven't been without WIFI until now. But, the USB tether seems to work quite well. It's just a pain having to use a cable knowing full well that my phone can do without it. I equate it to buying a car/truck that can carry x amount but, the auto company locks the doors/trunk unless I pay them extra each month to use that "feature". It still strikes me as criminal activity on the part of these companies. I rarely go over 1 - 2 GB but, if I lose my normal internet connection, it's my backup until things get sorted out.
