I’ve had mine for 6 months now and am happy with it. I do pay the $15/month for tethering plus the data fee. Tethering is just as fast as our cable connection was. You can use the phone while you’re tethering. It does, however, tend to disconnect often when moving it around.
Two questions I have: How do I turn the keyboard light on? It doesn’t happen automatically and you can’t see it in dark places. Also, why do my speed dials get wiped out every time it synchronizes?

Where do you find ‘Main Memory’ on the phone? It’s probably realy obvious, but I just don’t see it.

How do you get the keyboard to stay lit during a call at night? Mine goes black after 10 seconds.

PDANet continues to be offered as an option to use with phones on the Verizon network, but it is important to note that it is not condoned by Verizon. The experience of Palm Pre users who got to use iTunes on their phones UNTIL Apple blocked them from doing so should be cautionary. PDANet works for now on the HTC Ozone, but Verizon could act to block PDANet in the future and since tethering isn't covered in your data plan you'd be left high & dry. For this reason, I've shied away from PDANet as an option. If you are less risk-averse than I am and go for it, I'd love to hear about your experience with PDANet, Dan.

I think the PDAnet solution may be what I’ve been looking for to save money on internet-enabling a laptop. Verizon has so many plans that I’m confused on which is the cheapest plan I get get by with and still have it work with PDAnet. Anyone know?

If someone has Mac like I do, you can buy sync mate and you’d be surprised how good it does. You download CAB apps and most of the time, it’ll install stuff on the ozone.
