Unfortunately, that's not the case. I would have to get a separate plan just for the broadband card because they charge that by Data Usage. The plan would cost about $60 per month and I would be additionally be charged for any data usage over 5GB, which the girl told me would only happen if I download a lot (which I don't).

Needless to say, if I want to use my netbook anywhere outside of my house, I'm going to have to find places with the WiFi sign!
You might want to see if there's a workaround for your phone. There's a registry hack that lets me tether my HTC 6800 (Mogul) without the extra plan.
