Verizon is getting their coolest phone yet and it will be for sale later
this week.

If you buy the above phone and want to use it for internet on your laptop
there are two ways to do it.
1. A tethered connection with a USB cable.
2. Using Bluetooth PAN (Personal Area Network).
Either way, tethered or Bluetooth you have to use "Internet Sharing" on the
phone to get the internet from the phone to the laptop.
"Internet Sharing" is a program normally found in the "Comm Manager" and
there will probably be a shortcut to "Comm Manager" somewhere or you can
just go Start->Programs->Comm Manager. You might also be able to use:
Start->Programs->Internet Sharing to get straight to "Internet Sharing."
Once you start "Internet Sharing" on the phone you should be able to select
USB or "Bluetooth PAN", provided Verizion has not disabled the "Bluetooth
PAN" feature and then tap "Connect" on the bottom of the screen. That is
pretty much it for setting up the phone.
If you have a "tethered connection" and have installed software that came
with the phone just wait a few seconds and you will have Internet.
