I love this app. Tethering via cable is insanely useful for me when the internet is down, or just when I’m away from WiFi. Even better though is wireless tethering, turning my N900 or N8 into a hotspot. This way I can use multiple devices  too. You can use a passcode to prevent others leeching your WiFi (as I found in some lectures when some macbooks and some iPhones started using my N900 as WiFi source…well I couldn’t get passcode working then, but it works great now on S^3)

For the price, it looks a touch expensive (8GBP) but like Gravity, since you’d use it so much, it’s well worth the price.
