Yeah, that was my situation. You weren't allowed to use it as a modem
without going through their tethering system. Not sure how they would know,
but....

Did you sign up recently, or is that from a few years ago? I believe
their current deals are nowhere near that generous.

Also, they may preclude "tethered" mode (feeding a computer), but they
don't have any easy way to determine if that's what you're doing. However,
if they figure it out, you could be in for a big surprise at billing time.
Cingular has an unlimited deal for $19 - half of their sales people say
its non-tethered only, the other half (probably those on commission) say
you have no problem using it tethered.
