Anyone know how to do BT tethering on the Telus network? I'm using an LG Chocolate (original slider) phone.
If you can transfer to a Mike (Telus iDEN) plan and your area has coverage, you may be able to tether to a Motorola iDEN handset without Telus/Mike the wiser.

Regarding Mike:

Packet Data
In the MS Windows dialup network connection place "s=2" in the place of the phone number to dial and your Mike phone will default to a packet instead of a circuit switch and you will not be charged airtime. It seems that using this setup piggybacks the microbrowser. Credit: H. Sibble
