My absolutely non-smart at all (but lovely) modern nice looking Nokia 515
can share the internet connection to the mac when it's plugged in with USB.
It also has Bluetooth and presume this will also work but have never
tried...  I'll report back later if I get a chance to try today. If this
one works then I would assume the cheaper plastic versions of this phone
would behave the same way
