PdaNet *can* "Wifi" tether over a bluetooth connection.
That happened to me at first with Barnacle. I can't recall exactly what I did, but I think i hit the "Associate" button on Barnacle, and maybe that did the trick. Or i simply disconnected from it on my computer, hit associate, brought the wireless list back up, doube clicked it and it worked. It was a bunch of back-n-forth (now and then). But once I got it connected, it was connected. My description sounds worse than it was (FYI).I've got Wifi Tether and Barnacle Tether and I can't get either of them to work. My computer finds them and it says it's connected but that there is no internet connection... Can anyone help me and tell me why it won't work?
Yea...I don't quite follow the terminology either. It's like "DROID Jargon" to me ...yes, i know it's an actual term...i'm just saingI realize it is semantics....but...
It seems to make sense to me that "tether" means it has to be cable connected?

Anything over 5gigs will probably alert them though there are people doing close to 100GB. I talked to 3 different Verizon reps on the phone - they all said WiFi is ok as long as you keep it under 5GB. Same for my dad who got a Droid recently (except it was a Verizon Wireless store manager that told him this).
I average about 100-200MB in a 3-4 hour tethering session. All depends on what I'm doing. Talking to GF on Windows Live Messenger takes 20MB in an hour or so, browsing websites takes a lot more. Downloading music = incredible amount.
