[TriLUG] OT: Wireless Hotspot weekly rental?

[James Jones]

For the droid there is the app easytether which requires NO rooting.
When my normal internet is down, I just plug my droid into my laptop
via usb and eaytether provides me with internet!

The app is free unless you need https. The cost of the additional
features is -- If memory serves me correctly -- around 10 dollars.
