Tethering — for the win!

After much internal dialog, I decided to try to tether my Google G1 (T-Mobile) with my Netbook. This has been out for quite some time and until I saw Dan Wahlin use it while teaching a class (on Silverlight), I had decided there was no real need. That was until I bought a Netbook.

While this sucker is nice around the house, cruising at 10+ Mb/sec speeds, doing the same going down the road or someplace else without WiFi, is completely another story. Tomorrow I'll find myself in an area where there is no connection, and being able to stay connected is a bonus. Thanks PDAnet.
