I assume tethering includes using the hotspot. I have unlimited data on the phone and unlimited data on the hotspot. We used between 8 and 9 gigs on the hotspot last February with no additional fee. In our case, the hotspot may be a separate plan, but still grandfathered as unlimited.

I confirm this with Verizon every time I talk to them, including the conversation about the new phone.

To my knowledge, Verizon has never offered a Hotspot plan with unlimited data. Are you using something like FoxFi to create the Hotspot? If so, you aren't using Verizon's Hotspot option. I use FoxFi on my phone with an unlimited data plan and do not have a Hotspot plan.

The only thing I do is turn the hotspot on when I need it. I do use PDA.net several times during the winter to make reservations on ReserveAmerica due to the hotspot being so unstable.

I read the Verizon Galaxy S3 update link provided above. I only know what she told me. She said I was up to date. I received the new Razr about an hour ago.

My build number ends in MB1 as opposed to MD3 in the article.
