Verizon Joins AT&T In Crippling Android Handsets → Re: No tether makes no sense

yeah i use Pdanet on my HTC Aria with no problems at all...of course at&t blocks you from d/l Pdanet and other apps for tethering on the market ...but you can get around that by enabling airplane mode on your phone(which kills all cellular and data connections) then turning your wifi back on and then search the market...get the apps that are blocked installed and then switch off airplane mode...easy as that
