I have the paid mytether and USB/Blutooth work but wifi doesn't.
Also with 1.3.1 you have to restart to turn tether on/off.
Don't know about SD8...

my tether doesn't not work with 1.3.1 yet. At least not the 1.2.1 version will not work and it might give you issues with the native wifi. Wait for an update before adding it.

I think this is why so many people are getting confused. half the people are saying it works with 1.3.1 and the other half are saying its broken and are waiting for an update. I think at this point, YMMV!

The only person I have seen saying it is Achill3s, it works.

Use the same 1.2.1 installer and just hit upgrade, voila!
It's not perfect (you have to restart everytime you want it on/off) but it works.

Keep up with the progress:
My Tether (MyTether) on Twitter

If you are new and interested I say wait a few more days for it to be optimized.

The developer has tweeted he is still working the bugs out of a new version to fix what was changed by the Palm update. Just be patient.

The free MyTether can work through USB and BT with a fairly easy set of steps. You can find it listed here:

Oops! I should've been more specific, Jason's updated installer for "Myether Free" (his ipk) doesn't work yet. Give him time and he'll probably update his ipk for 1.3.1 functionality (at least for those of you waiting for an ipk).

According to Lethal, I believe he said that BT and USB tethering work if you correct your files with per his instructions but wifi tethering still does not work as of today.
