Data tethering is a go on Palm Pre

—

There are many things the Pre can do. Tragically, swallow a microSD card whole (or otherwise) is not one of them, which is kind of unfortunate considering that only 7.4GB of the integrated 8GB will be available to the user -- but it turns out that tethering, thankfully, is. Newly-published ...

Sprint Post Palm Pre Specifications: Data Tethering Included
Wired: Gadget Lab — ... only can it stream to stereo headphones, it can be used to tether the Pre as a modem, something the iPhone won't even do with a wire.

Here I thought there wouldn’t be any desktop software for the Pre; Sounds like it’s not total Synergy after all. Pre can be used as a modem and USB drive. Sprint officially says so on the updated Pre product ...
