If you have a jailbroken iPhone, you can tether your iPad already.... free of a monthly charge etc etc.

Echo tethers hers to her phone using MyWi

I didn't really care about jailbreaking my iPhone until I got an iPad (last week.)
I may do it tonight.
Any advice?

Blueface · 02-23-2011, 02:03 PM

I am so afraid to jail break mine.
Sounds so awful.

Sauer Grapes · 02-23-2011, 10:24 AM

Plus tethering through AT&T will be costly if you do it without it being unlocked and using wifi.

CigarNut · 02-23-2011, 11:28 AM

Not sure I want to give up my grandfathered unlimited data plan. I just wish I could add my iPad to my existing account so that I could get that plan for the iPad as well...

LasciviousXXX · 02-23-2011, 04:30 PM

LOL, no the jailbreak process nowadays is extremely easy. Go to www.greenpois0n.com and download the jailbreak. Follow the instructions and you're done! Well, mostly anyway. Run the loader and it will install Cydia. Cydia is where you can find all the fun third party stuff that really makes the iPhone shine. You'll spend days exploring all the cool apps in there.

If you need any help with specifics, shoot me a PM

Sprint is trying to charge for Tethering. I don't think google liked that, so they released their own tethering app. Root your android phone and you can tether for free.

That being said... waiting just a little longer for any of the 30+ android tablets being released in the next few months.

I like apple, their products, etc. I just don't like paying the tax that goes with it.

bvilchez · 03-02-2011, 11:20 AM

Sauer Grapes · 03-02-2011, 11:40 AM

My wife is getting one free from her work. Unfortunately it's going to be 16GB, so we'll sell it to get a larger capacity one.

Sauer Grapes · 03-02-2011, 11:50 AM

Still looks pretty cool overall. We were planning on buying before my wife's company surprised us, and I think we still would have bought.

Did you notice that unlike the iPhone 3GS and 4, that were both still available when the iPhone 4 came out and to this day, all options to buy the first generation iPad are gone.

That's becuase they are listed under Clearance. $100 off.

Oh. My. God.
It had to happen sooner or later. I definately don't need this.

I just got an Otterbox for my iPad, so it's like brand new to me, anyways. I have next to nothing on it. I just use it for internet on the couch and for adding movies to my netflix queue.
Lisa and I just got new iphones, and honestly, I was much happier with my 3GS/Otterbox combo than the 4/Otterbox. I constantly have to put the cover back on this one. Sucks.
Anyways, I hope you guys pony up and tell me what I'm missing so I'll change my mind. Shout if anyone picks one up.
