Hi Jean, thanks for the comment! From my understanding, AT&T has no way of knowing whether I'm surfing the web on my iPhone's Mobile Safari browser, or on my Mac via tethering. As long as you don't abuse it and run a torrent server or download gigs of music or videos, I don't think AT&T would have any reason to suspect anything. The amount of data I use through tethering is actually probably less than I use on my iPhone, so I'm not worried. Especially since AT&T advertises the plan as an unlimited data plan, why not put it to use! 😛

Thanks for the comment 101010!

I've not heard of this site, but I'm looking at it now and it looks pretty interesting. Thanks for the suggestion!

Under Settings -> General -> Usage, it displays the data usage, though I'm not sure if this is taking into account the tethering use. For the most part, I only use this in a park or coffee shop (other than Starbucks, since I get unlimited wifi there since I buy plenty of coffee) that doesn't have free wifi available and just for email, social network, etc, so my use is probably not much more than general iPhone data usage. I wouldn't suggest running a torrent server or downloading lots of iTunes music over 3G, though. But hey, AT&T says it's an "unlimited data plan" so why not! 😉

I do have 6GB , though, and tethering on my Mac is pretty blazingly fast so far.
