Official Sanctioned Sprint Tethering for Pre: Not Likely

October 29th 2009 | Posted by Dieter Bohn

Sure, the hardcore among us know and love MyTether (at right), but what if we want fully above-board, simple, carrier-sanctioned tethering?

Unfortunately, that doesn't look to be in the cards for Palm Pre and Sprint. Sascha Segan at GearLog checked out the chat Sprint put on with exec David Owens and laid out plenty of points, including "No tethering for phones that require Everything plans (such as all smartphones) from here on out."

It's a bummer, but unfortunately it's not really a surprise. What was a bit of a surprise was Owens said we can expect WiMAX phones next year - we wouldn't spit on some sweet 4G action.
