I just set up the personal hotspot on the iPhone. It's great. For those of you that are on the road and are sick of paying for Boingo Internet access at airports, this is a must. Most cell phones now have this. It basically allows your iPad or your laptop to set up a personal hotspot, which means that you can use your wireless signal from your phone to check e-mail and surf the net. This means that I don't have to pay for hotel Internet, I don't have to pay for airport Internet, I just use my iPhone.

Granted it's still at the speed of my phone, but for basic stuff it's fast enough. Cost is $20 a month. To activate it, just call 611 from your iPhone, or if you have another phone, call your carrier. It's just the coolest thing ever.
