EDITOR’S NOTE: This article is part of MobileTechWorld’s historical archive. Mobile technology has evolved dramatically since this was published. For our latest coverage, explore our Latest News, Reviews, and AI in Mobile coverage.

This shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone but we finally have confirmation that WiFi Hot-Spot feature introduced in Windows Phone 7 Mango exists and can only be enabled by your carrier similar to USB Tethering a several other features like visual voice mail (and other stuff that haven’t been publicly talked about yet). So nothing amazing here , Windows Phone works in the same way as iOS does when it comes to these kind of features.
