Just skip the time on opening personal hotspot and connect wifi from screen, jump into car and go. sometimes hotspot will drop and phone will be overheating during data sharing. if you charging your phone via wireless charging and hotspot, phone will be extremely hot. for me, it can make everything easy and ready to go. it is annoying if i have to set up everything every time jump into car.

Macquarie just gave me a call - loans been settled with tesla today, countdown game begins
Yes, there are lots of HPWC that have been mounted outside in the elements for years now.
The $10 is covering the additional mobile data used by those entertainment options, as well as whatever they're paying Spotify for the car-linked accounts, Google for the satellite view map tiles and whichever provider is supplying the live traffic data. So if you use your phone hotspot, the services that just need additional data work (like Netflix, Spotify with your own account, etc) and the ones that Tesla still has to pay for (like the satellite view map) don't.
Mines gone backwards, they must be reversing it onto the ship
they will give free petrol when they have pipeline connected to their buildingSaw a Facebook ICE lover butthurt because a Brisbane hotel is offering free charging for EVs. “Where’s my free petrol?”
The HPWC is fully outdoor rated and are in operation everywhere from Norway to Death Valley.
Hurray, delivery is booked for 4th August at Miranda!
So if you pay the $10 for Premium Connectivity, it comes with a "premium" Spotify account? I'm reading some conflicting information that says a Spotify Premium account is still needed even with Tesla's Premium Connectivity.
Tesla will end standard connectivity after 8 years on new car purchases after July 20th 2022, it’s no longer lifetime..
From what I'm led to believe, you get a free account with the premium subscription in Australia. The car just connects and you don't need to log in. You can however also log in using your own personal account if you wish so that playlists and history follow you between your car and other devices etc. Happy to be corrected but this is my experience from hiring a model 3 over a long weekend and other info I've read.

Can you use the Tesla premium spotify account on other devices eg iPhone and Amazon FireStick TV?
No. Only the reverse is possible (using existing paid Spotify account in the Tesla)
It comes with an ad-free Spotify account that is linked to the car and only works in the car. Presumably Tesla is charged less for this than the cost of a full premium Spotify account.
You activate this account in the car the first time by tapping on a link that creates the car account.

Pickup at Hendra late this week. Getting excited/nervous.
May be they are figuring out VIC 2.5cents a km tax for car travelled on VIC roads on trucks
Specifications have it rated IP 55 which means-
What is an IP55 rated product?
The product is fully protected against solid objects and splashing of water from any angle. An IP55 rated product is protected against dust ingress that could be harmful for the normal operation of the product but is not fully dust tight. It is protected against solid objects and water jets projected by a nozzle (6.3mm) from any directions.
However the main consideration is WIFI ... so NOT on the tree down the front paddock or on the back gatepost. If your getting 32amp supply to it needs 6mm cable if over 25m as is the case for me.
