Moot, but the iPhone does have 802.11 b (and g I think too). No clue on if a bluetooth tether is even an option, or if the iPhone can share its connection over WiFi.

But, in most cases, I've heard of stories of people getting their cell phone service canceled when they started to use their cell phone plan as a main internet connection. I believe the letter was something like "You've used too much data on your unlimited data plan, so we are canceling everything." I think we're talking gigs of data here (The one story I remember hearing was around 5gb/mo, and this was on Verizon).
