Missing Sync 2.5: does it allow Mac USB tethering?

Missing Sync 2.5 (for WM5) has been released and allows Macs to sync with WM5 devices. Does it also allow Macs to finally tether via USB (as opposed to the slower and seemingly unstable bluetooth tether)?

Thanks for your insights!

From their website:

Solution
Your handheld device can connect to the internet via its modem (if you subscribed to that option with your cellular phone provider - your ISP). This is usually an add-on feature that may be included in your plan, or may be a monthly fee. Your cellular provider can supply the information you need to enter on your handheld device.

The Missing Sync software does not allow you to use you handheld as a dialup modem by your Mac.

The Missing Sync does allow your Mac to share its web connection via Internet Sharing with your handheld, without an ongoing subscription. The Missing Sync also allows you to connect via USB, Bluetooth and WiFi, depending on your hardware configuration.

There is more information about these features in the User's Guide, which can be accessed from the Help menu or found in the Missing Sync folder (in the Applications folder). Additional information can also be found in the Mark/Space Knowledgebase.

I think it has been discussed elsewhere.
