Could you, please, explain how you do that? I've turned off the Wi-FI and I'm on 3G and I don't see the personal hotspot appears on my 3GS. Thanks!

What version iOS are you running on your device?
In iOS4.1 and 4.2 the feature is called Tethering.
In iOS4.3 it is renamed Personal Hotspot.

I use the Hotspot via Bluetooth typing on the iPad now on this message as my iPhone acts as a single user hotspot.
Just read this article
http://www.macworld.com/article/158556/2011/03/personal_hotspot_att.html
clearly the personal hotspot feature can be updated to a 3GS but it works only with an iPhone4....
3GS users can still use the internet tethering option ..it has not dissappeared but just renamed as Personal Hotspot....
The 3GS is certainly capable of using the wifi option of personal hotspot having seen it myself. Apple apparently are just making this the first major cut off for support of the GS.
I think your reply answered to the question.
Bluetooth Internet tethering is now known as personal hotspot as it allows multiple users.
The older version only allow 1 Bluetooth tethering at a time.
Yes. What 3GS lacking is the internet sharing over wifi.
Some telcos,
They disabled the personal hotspot for commercial reasons.
Or they impose extra charges for personal hotspot because of it's multiple user possibility.
I find your answer very pleasant and clear.
Straight to the point.
I do not understand why someone finds it not
But offensive instead...
Weird :)
Have a nice day
I believe you guys could find the official answer here. HOPE it helps you!
