Sprint promotes EV-Do hotspots?!

I recently received an email from Sprint with a very interesting subject line: Be your own hotspot. Can it be? Is Sprint promoting the use of a single EV-Do connection for sharing? Or am I reading too much into the subject?

Your Sprint PowerVision phone is now equipped to provide a high-speed wireless internet connection to your computer. You can send and receive email, browse the Internet, and access your company’s network anywhere on the Sprint Power Vision Network with DSL-like speeds (300-800 Kbps). This service has now been applied to your phone and is ready for use!
