Thats what I recalled... shouldn't it promot you for charges though??

Cuz if I were a complete noob I would have used it and been caught off guard a bit...

Now, does the bluetooth or USB tether charge????

You can bluetooth tether right now with Windows for free. You can also buy and download PDAnet or Easy Tether for USB tethering.

I spoke to Verizon today about this very same topic. Once you activate the Hotspot and THEN connect a device you will be charged, WITHOUT WARNING. This is unfair. If you've had an unlimited data plan BEFORE the X purchase you shouldn't be charged $20 for hotspot.

The rep gave me the corporate office address to write with my complaint:
PO BOX 4003, ACWORTH, GA 30101.

If the tethering interface is at all like the tethering interface Verizon uses for 2.2/Droid USB tethering, when I connect a device via USB tether and attempt to go to a website, it directs me to a Verizon page which clearly asks if you want to add the tethering service for $20. This was using FroYo 2.2 with my standard Droid, but I would guess they'd use a similar if not exactly identical handling scheme for the Droid X.

I will assume you are rooted in order to have Froyo.


As for prompt, I am surprised it doesn't. I am thinking of doing for use with my iTouch but not sure. I like the Droid X. I really like it over my Droid.
