Mango (released to verizon) offers hotspot. The Samsung focus offered USB tether from day 1 last Nov.
Verizon is the king of cripple (remember when they disabled GPS chips and forced HTC and co. to remove wifi on smartphones) so all bets are off what verizon will allow.
In all honesty with the price of hotspot you're better off buying a mifi which will save battery, allow you to use the phone at the same time and laptops, etc.
