The personal hotspot is nothing new to Verizon - I've had it for a while. I use it mostly for travelling - still have my internet service at home. It does work as wifi around the house (my wifi unit broke).
I wouldn't consider using it as my sole source of internet at home because I work at my computer several hours a day and need internet access to get anything done. THe personal hotspot is my back up if my regular internet has issues.
The personal hotspot sucks a ton of power from the battery of the phone and it's best to keep your phone plugged in while using the hotspot.
I don;t watch a lot of video or play games.
