Default AT&T Blocked apps?

So far I've heard that ATT is blocking us from EasyTether in the market. It looks like there are about 5 more tether programs that ATT is blocking as well. Is there anything else that they are blocking us from? Maybe we could make a list of them here. Not sure why they bother blocking them since its so easy to get around.

According to these posts, this seems to work.

Even if you install it, I think it still doesn't work. Some people are working on it, I believe.

Obviously, unblocking is harder than once imagined. People still don't have it working yet....

I think this was mentioned in the forum but I was able to use easytether by taking out my sim card. Then downloading easytether through wifi with the sim card out. After the installation I put my sim card back in and everything worked fine.

I haven't tried to use it yet but I was able to download it from the marketplace by simply going into Airplane mode and then turning on Wi-Fi; I didn't have to remove my SIM or anything like that.

I did this and was able to download and install Easytether. It's working fine with my 32bit XP machine

$10 and it doesn't even have bluetooth or wifi tethering? Am I missing something? We need to find some free ones that work.
