    What are the chances of this coming to GSM carriers like AT&T?

    There aren't any right now since it seems to be exclusive to Verizon's 700 MHz spectrum.

    Lawl. TetherMe works great. $20 more per month? Hell no! $30 a month unlimited is enough, plus that shared data crap? HATE!

    My problem is that even though I use TetherMe AT&T still detects the fact that I'm tethering, and I have to go through extra measures to make sure that they don't upgrade my plan for the 5 GB plan. I have better things to do with $20 a month.

    Don't worry T-mobile users they don't even care about tethering. Some of their phones come with native tethering at no extra charge
