I'm not sure of the details, but if they have it on the 4G and the 3D then it will probably be the same on the LTE.

Yeah. Once rooted, it was easy to install a root-only tethering solution, which was (is) free.

I expect it will be the same with the E4L.

A third party app should work. That said....don't abuse your unlimited data if you aren't paying for the tethering. The data hogs will be the end of unlimited data and/or throttled data on Sprint. While I do tether from time to time, I don't use it as my home Internet for my computer. Just be mindful of usage so we continue to enjoy our unlimited data.

The phone companies have trained you well. We paid for unlimited data, we should be able to use it anyway we want. There is no difference if you consume 2GB watching Netflix on your phone or 2GB on your laptop using the rooted hotspot. Should I watch what I eat the next time I go to a buffet? Should I go on less rides at the amusement parks? Should I pee less in the public pool? Helz no (except for the peeing thing). If they raise prices, shame on them, not shame on us!

And when Sprint gets rid of unlimited data because they can't afford people abusing rooted hotspot, I'm sure you'll find great comfort telling them they should be ashamed. After all, you've got (really bad) analogies!
Need some handpicked HD wallpapers sized for your EVO 4G LTE? Here are some that I found. (1270 as of 9/25)

And your parents trained you to be an asshole well. By tethering, you are breaking your agreement with Sprint. They have the right to terminate you. They also have the right to end your contract if you use excessive data. Read your contract. As for your analogies, try going to an "all you can eat" buffet and sitting there all day feasting. It won't happen.
