3G vs 4G tethering: night and day. I can now click on things through my remote desktop session and have them actually respond, instead of doing the mental 2-count (or switching to Google Reader while waiting, which is always a productivity killer).

I have some concerns about the battery life of my new HTC Thunderbolt, and I'm not blown away by the form factor, but so far I definitely prefer it to my iPhone 3GS. And the 4G factor alone makes it totally worthwhile.
