Spoke to a CR at Cingular. Basically, they told me that on the current 29.99 plan, I should not be able to use it as a modem. They said that if I was, it could be likened to stealing cable. Then, the rep said that there was really no way to stop anyone who is not tethered from using their pearl as a modem. When I asked why they charged so much extra for tethering, he said he didn't know.

Just thought I would pass on the info.
