The increasingly popular MyTether application for the Palm Pre which allows for tethering over USB or Wi-Fi has now been updated to support Verizon’s Pre Plus with the same aforementioned tethering options without needing to pay for Verizon’s Mobile Hotspot monthly fee by utilizing the built-in API calls for the aforementioned service, according to the developer.
The application also includes additional functionality such as network usage graphing, DHCP client list viewing, access control for Wi-Fi tethering along with WEP/WPA2 security settings.
The developer has also seen fit to increase the price from a $10 donation to a forced “donation” of $14.95 in order to access the updated application.

Well. A one time fee under $15 is better than a monthly fee of $40. Its just they better offer some type of support now that they are charging for it.
