You can tether your iPhone for use with pretty much any wireless device relatively* easily with srelay. There's a pretty good guide for putting it all together here:

Useful in an emergency. It remains to be seen as to whether Apple themselves would make this a feature - I'd imagine AT&T might have something to say about that.

*For nerds.

Actually, now that I think about it, TinyProxy from Installer.app would work just as well and should be pretty simple to setup.

Thanks Jason, I'll give it a go and see how well it works.

If we can wrap that up in a "Click here to use your iPhone connection" app on Mac OS X then it would be deadly.

Actually, it would be better if the setup-app was on the iPhone and then any WiFi capable computer would just see it (obviously with security and such.)
