iPhones have changed the world of cell phones. No argument there. The entire has them, and it's a staple of life on the road. If it could do only one thing... I'm sure HCR would all agree that it would need to be the ability to tether. For all of you who have the 3GS, stop reading, you can't tether. For all of you who have upgraded past 3.0.1, you would have to downgrade in order to do this... but it's so very worth it. Right now I'm blogging by tethering. I'm using my phones 3G network as a wireless modem for my laptop. This is not "suppose" to be done, but whatever. There are way too many hotels with intermittent internet, or just riding in the van itself makes the feature valuable. I have been into an AT&T store and had the salesperson tell me that they can tell when someone tethers and will charge them enormous fees. I'm gonna call that bluff. The one amazing thing about AT&T is that they love their customers. I have NEVER had, or heard of an altercation with the company where they didn't bend over backwards to make a problem right. So if they put a charge for tethering on my bill, I will simply say "Nope, I won't pay it. You can't prove that it wasn't just me surfing the web from my phone." They could technically prove it, but they'll end up saying "Oh, you're right. So sorry to hassle you. Thank you for your business." It's for other reasons before. SO, I saw this add, or poster, or whatever it is(can't even remember now)... and had to share it with you. It's my own "stick it to AT&T for having iPhones exclusively, and having terrible service!" dedication.
Dream on.
