Hey, AT&T: Where's The iPhone Tethering?
- mildweed 17y agoWhat kind off pricing model would HN readers accept from AT&T (since its obvious they want to charge for it)? Would you prefer a flat rate or a usage charge? I feel the data plan is already expensive, but I would be willing to fork over another $2/month for this service.

- DannoHung 17y agoI could go for 2 to 5 extra a month since I'd mostly only use it in a few situations and the rate wouldn't be much better than just surfing on my iPhone.
- tibbon 17y agoI'm curious as to the limits that AT&T will put in place. All of the USB-teathering providers now (mysteriously all around the same time) now have 5GB caps in place on bandwidth per month. You can't buy more from most, and getting two cards/accounts is the only option. Oddly they all advertised these initially as unlimited plans. An AT&T Executive said in the NYT a while ago when they announced teathering that they'd place no restrictions on use. I'm wondering if they keep to their word, or not. Probably not.
- dschobel 17y agoATT's network is already ridiculously overloaded, not adding tethering yet is absolutely the right move.
