5233 doesn't even have a Wi-Fi.
@op, if you can spend upto 10k, check LG Optimus One. I do think that this one has wifi tethering.

Joiku has many versions. Only paid version has download capability.

It's best to get a Lg Optimus One P500 considering how good a phone it is.

what u guys are talking about. i was about to buy optimus one before my dad refused yesterday giving lame reasons like what u will do with new mobile when u dont have a sim [i lost my phone this jan, it was old 1208 nokia]. so i have to use my pocket money to buy one. so, these cheap phones like C3 and chat 335 dont support wifi tethering ??? :(

i think i should cancel my plan and buy 1TB HDD instead :*(

Nokia phones require an app called Joiku Spot light. It can tether but when you want to download something you will need to buy a premium version of that software
