A lot of them do. BB, Android, WinMo, Iphone. You'll need to add something like PDANet as they usually only support BT or USB tethering.

Nokia with joikuspot for Symbian or Maemo. <$10 program (by paypal) or lite version without WEP key but works very well. Maemo also has free program, but pointless because it will only work with Wind Mobile

I have data plan from Rogers and put my sim in E71 with Joikuspot. about 4 hours of continue usage and speed is good enough that I can't tell the difference between USB stick (21Mbps) or WiFi from E71 (3.6Mbps). Rogers on USB stick is about 3 Mbps from what I got anyway.

I can share more than 1 computer and devices at the same time which is wonderful, not to mention USB stick is a huge batter eater.
