HTC Evo 4g and Droid X froyo question

I have a question I can't seem to find anywhere else so I'm asking it, if this is in the wrong section please move it or direct me to where I should put it
Question:
the 2.2 Froyo update comes with wifi and wired tethering does it not? Ok but VZW and Sprint are charging for wifi hotspot. Now before I choose a phone (Leaning towards Evo, motoblur seems annoying) I want to know if 2.2 would allow me to do it for free, or even if I can use easy root to do it. But are VZV and Sprint cracking down on tethering lately? why offer UNLIMITED DATA if we can't use it to our hearts content... its not like I'll cancel my Comcast internet for it.
