So I've seen this on a few different sites, and I'm not going to lie I'm kind of ticked off at this fact. I'm not going to say this is something that I'd definitely use on a daily basis (in fact, I'd probably rarely use it b/c of the horrid speed), but having the capability to at LEAST tether would be mighty nice...
I realize that I could just root to something that would allow this, however, I tried rooting once before. I was successful, but had TONS of FC's and just general ridiculous lagging. This paired w/ the fact that the battery life is HORRIBLE with the version of BB that I was running (I didn't realize it was that bad until I reverted and unrooted. I was used to getting through a night at work and being left with 20% battery with little to no use ... turns out it was just the phone running too hot all the time!)...
This all paired with the fact that I went home this weekend and my parents DSL modem/router was fried so I couldn't get online... :icon_evil:
