More iPhone 3.0 features: Tethering and Find my iPhone
9 to 5 Mac - Apple Intelligence — ... A developer has found that that tethering both via USB and Bluetooth is possible under the 3.0 beta developer release (of course, those of us with Jailbroken iPhones won't be too impressed with this).  It isn't immediately clear how AT&T and the other carriers will be able to distinguish who is tethering and who isn't.   Apple will have to coordinate the locking and unlocking with the carriers. ...

USB tethering, Publish Video and Find my iPhone found in OS 3.0
Engadget — ... is reporting that a hacker has dug up and successfully activated the USB tethering capabilities. Apple's Scott Forstall had mentioned the devs were building it in, but were still in talks with the carriers.

Developer shows working iPhone 3.0 tethering over USB
AppleInsider — ... The feature is exposed in the iPhone's network settings as a simple slider and describes the feature as only requiring a USB connection or a Bluetooth pairing, though the latter hasn't yet been tested. When connected, an iPhone shows a blue "Internet tethering" status bar below the clock to remind the owner that the tethering link is still active and consuming data, much as existing iPhone firmware will display a green bar to indicate an ongoing phone call. The exposed feature, noticed by MacRumors on Wednesday, confirms remarks by senior iPhone software VP Scott Forstall ...

USB Tethering Works Fine With iPhone Software 3.0
Mac|Life — USB tethering seems to be working fine with the new iPhone 3.0 software update, according to a developer . While tinkering with the settings in his upgraded iPhone 3G, the developer was actually able to tether the connection from his device over to his laptop via USB and discovered that it could be done by Bluetooth as well. For those unaware, tethering allows you to share your device’s internet connection with your laptop. Mobile carriers generally charge an extra fee for this feature. Apple admitted that they had integrated tethering support into the 3.0 release but ...

First Look: iPhone OS 3.0 Beta
TheAppleBlog — ... So far I’ve not been able to get MMS up and running yet, though some have by modifying their carrier’s IPCC file, which can also enable tethering. A share via MMS link is available when viewing contacts, but it doesn’t do anything. There are changes in the app itself, though, like the ability to add subjects to messages, and to delete individual messages from conversations. You can also select and copy individual messages, although thanks to a bug, they stay blue (selected) even when you select something else. ...
