Also your phone must be rooted to tether with verizon or you must pay verizon for tethering. Your edge must be rooted to run the adhoc switcher app as well.
I believe Open Garden Tethering does it in Adhoc mode, so you don't need a purposed software running on our underpowered PE.

Sounds like you either have to run software on the droid or the PE.
In anycase, looks like we have two known solutions here which is great.

When you run Open Garden's solution, you have to root your phone. That may be an issue with some, but you can connect with any device that supports wifi, no matter what OS it is running.
