As far as I'm aware, on non-jail broken devices, this can only be done on the new iPhone4, which supports WiFi tethering. Other iPhones do not support tethering.

You can tether with the iphone 3Gs via bluetooth tethering and iphone4 wifi or bluetooth. No need to JB as long as both iphone and ipad are using same ios and you have signed up for tethering through cell phone company..

connecting WiFi Ipad2 to internet via Iphone3GS

Success!!:D

Iphone3gs with 4.2.1 - enabled tethering under 'network' and enabled bluetooth
Ipad2 16G WiFi 4.3.3 - enabled bluetooth

paired Iphone and Ipad2

Powered up Safari on Ipad2 and connected to internet

Already had a 'data' plan enabled on the Iphone

No jailbreaking needed of either device
 
Gosh! I didn't know that you could tether using a 3GS. Yes, how much is tethering?

I'm assuming a month? I'm going to have to ask Tesco O2 if they do tethering. They didn't do it back along but I'm sure I heard that they would be implementing it soon!

Nope, that was correct at that time but I'm sure I've seen a more recent update, I must check when my iPhone 4 eventually gets here.

That is the plan, people say 2gb because you are already paying for 2, that plan gives you another 2gb to use.
