I just downloaded a program called PdaNet. I installed the program and enabled usb debugging on my g1 and it installed itself on the phone. Within minutes I was using my phone's access (albeit Wi-Fi since 3G is absent in my room...) to browse the internet.. A quick speed report showed about 50% of the speed of directly connecting my computer to the router.. But honestly, through usb, through the phone, through wi-fi it was acceptable.. Since they don't make a mac version, I can't try out the 3G speeds, but I'm sure they will me more than acceptable in a place where you need a full computer to access the internets. WIN.

Wi-Fi connection through G1 through USB:

I know I said 50% and I'm showing about 30%.. the first test I did was faster, but I didn't realize I could steal the badge.. but anyway, remember this is wi-fi through usb through the phone, so 3G should be much better, especially when there isn't internet. Although upload is pretty much the same lol
