AT&T Internet Tethering Comes to iPhone OS 4 Beta
- rdj 16y agoI don't think this is any closer to reality than it was 2 days ago. The setting shown in the screenshots are not in the latest beta build I installed on the 3GS. Other developers confirmed that it's not in their build either. I have yet to hear someone say they have it.
- justinweiss 16y agoIf you really want to see it, resetting your network settings will show it. It's not really worth it though, considering you can't do anything with the setting right now, and you'll have to re-enter your WiFi/VPN/etc. settings after the reset.
- wmeredith 16y agoAs said in the article, we've been here before. iPhone tethering was in the last beta, too. It never saw release. AT&T promised tethering by last fall. I find it strange that they're such close business partners with Apple, considering how woefully they under-deliver on their promises, when Apple's MO is basically the exact opposite. The AT&T/Apple relationship has been a black mark on my perception of the company, and I've been an Apple evangelist for 12 years.
- roc 16y agoThe flip side of that, is that AT&T isn't charging $3/month for visual voicemail. AT&T was a compromise from the beginning. But there are pluses and minuses to that; and the minuses hinge pretty heavily on physical location. Further, no-one saw the jump in data usage coming. I see no reason to expect Verizon would have done any better with it. I frankly expect VZW complaints to start kicking in next year, if they keep selling Droid devices they way they've been.
