It does work - I've done it.
I use the $238/mth plan from SMV and previously was never charged for iPhone tethering even though I'm supposed to be charged. Just received a SMS reminding me that tethering is not included. I suspect they are going to be charging from here forward.
Interesting development.
Like you I'm on the $250 monthly plan (lets call it what it really is, its not $238 as advertised, but in reality $250) and have used tethering (by creating a wifi hotspot on my N1) and have not been charged, as yet.
However I haven't received the text (yet).
When you look at your detailed bill, do you see items in the data section called "Web connection" ? I do when I have used iPhone tethering. So they are able to distinguish this data.
If you don't see it, maybe they can't tell the difference with a Nexus one.
