Q. How do I root android phones to get free apps from the android market place?
A. You have a horrible misunderstanding of what rooting is.....there is no way that Google would encourage rooting if it allowed you to download paid apps for free from the market.
Rooting
Obtaining root ("administrator", or "full") access to the device. This means you can mount its internal memory partition as read/write, which lets you do various things: have USB or Wi-Fi tethering, uninstall applications you otherwise can't uninstall (e.g. the Amazon MP3 store), install applications that need root access (such as AdFree), disable the camera shutter sound (simply by deleting the shutter sound file), overclock or underclock the CPU, install and boot Debian, and so on.

Q. I have an android which am using WiFi tethering on. I kill a lot of data watching streams, playing games and voice chatting. I do have an unlimited data plan, however it doesn't the terms doesn't mention anything about it. Will I be hit with a huge bill for killing around 300-500 MB a night?
A. From your description you shouldn't have any problems.
You said you're using wifi tethering... so to ensure we're on the same page: You've got your phone connected to your laptop (presumably via USB). The phone is connected to your wifi router. Thus your laptop is using your phone like a wifi card and is connecting to the internet on your router (via your phone).
The bit you need to be careful about is where your phone connects to get its internet connection. If your phone isn't connecting to your own personal router (which is connected to the internet). Then you need to check if you're connecting to the mobile internet. If you're connected to the mobile internet then you need to be very careful as you may be charged by the gigabyte. Some data plans do have a "wifi" package of sorts and if your phone is connecting to some arbitrary wifi source which you're totally unaware of, then you should also be careful about how much you use.
Some network providers give unlimited data plans though, so if you use 300-500 MB a night, then you should try to find those network providers. They do work pretty well when you get a good internet connection. I had a friend who did this all the time and he didn't pay for internet via a fixed line internet connection afterwards.
