Maybe.  Does DUN setup work on Windows or a Mac if you have access to
one?  If it does, then we've got a Linux problem.  If not, we have an
Evo/PDAnet problem.

There is the built-in wifi hotspot functionality, but you have to add
the tethering option onto your plan to make it work with 3G.

Does PDAnet have anything to say about the evo?  I'd expect they are
getting a *lot* of questions if it doesn't work.

Wait for HTC to release Froyo for it I guess...
