[olug] [OT] Verizon data plans...

Does anyone know if I activate the "WiFi HotSpot" feature through Verizon,
can I setup the phone to use it's own hotspot to surf rather than using 3G
directly?  Or is that not possible to be it's own hotspot?  (I'm thinking
not, but maybe there's an app to fix that).

For what it's worth, I have a DroidX (rooted), but all of the HotSpot apps
I've found get pulled into the Verizon page and don't work.  And I'm really
tired of the "Phone Data != Corporate Data != HotSpot Data" mentality...

I'm less than a year into my contract, so switching carriers isn't an
option.

Thanks in advance!

Dan
