you can tether with at&t now, but i think it's crazy expensive.

Yea, I am looking to keep my cost down. I guess I could always go down to the lounge, but that would suck. Lol

There is no jailbreak for iOS4 yet, so if you have an iphone 4 or you upgraded your 3g or 3gs to the new operating system you'll have to wait until the jailbreak becomes available.

I haven't upgraded to ios4 yet, don't think I will. It doesn't offer anything that I really want, except folders I think.

burn, if you're on ios4, no need to jailbreak, to get a special at&t plan or to call richard:

- youtube "handylight" for tutorials
- it's been pulled from the store, but i got it just in time (didn't try it yet). i can email it to you (for free of course). not sure if you can install it though?!?
p.s.: not sure if ios4 is needed cause some people say it works with their ipad.
