T-Mobile to start charging for official tethering on Nov. 3

It appears the days of free tethering on T-Mobile are numbered, as the carrier plans to start charging for it on Nov. 3. 

Starting next Wednesday, tethering through USB and Wi-Fi will cost $14.99/month. Customers will need to already have a 3G or HSPA+ capable device along with an unlimited data plan. Please see the full announcement after the break. 

It was fun while it lasted, but the free T-Mobile tethering had to come to an end at some point. At least the fee is less than what the other carriers are charging. Look for your phone bill to grow by $14.99 starting next week. [BGR]
