At&T has for the last time hooked me into thinking that they give a shit. They are a company that relies on excuses. From the moment they took over Airtouch Cellular they had an excuse for everything from bad coverage to excessive billing.

It is a sad reminder that they would hold off tethering capabilities in the US for no other reason than a justification of charging more than other carriers for the same product. GREEDY BASTARDS!!!!!!!

[...] The carrier currently offers video services on its phones, but only for one-way video and at a cost of up to $9.99 per month. If Apple’s front-facing camera is meant for two-way video conversation, AT&T will need to create a new offering. And it remains to be seen if AT&T customers will pay for another add-on service. Also possible is a lack of initial support for the camera; after all, AT&T has yet to offer the iPhone tethering feature that arrived in the last major software iteration. [...]

You might want to read the terms & conditions of your plan. The $15 is for unlimited data access ONLY on your phone. The T&C specifically states that it does not include tethering. AT&T can charge you as if you are on a much more expensive LaptopConnect plan if it “catches” you tethering.

Hate to break it to all you poor US citizens but Australia has 5 iPhone Apple authorized phone carriers Optus(Singtel), Telstra(Government Carrier), Vodaphone, 3ThreeNetwork and VirginMobile

Apple was in exclusive talks with 1 carrier before iphone 3g launch but was forced to consider other carriers after the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC)gov body responsible for company policing informed them it is illegal under anticompetitive laws to force consumers to only one carrier although carriers are aloud to lock the phones to their networks they must allow customers to be able to unlock the phones at a cost or 6months from activation at no cost

Use your power to convince your gov to make them let you choose your carrier its wrong!

AT&T can take their agreement with Apple and shove it up there ass!

Go to Verizon, cheaper, and proven better!

Does anyone remember that US Govt had to break up ATT once already!

There are “hacks” that enable this (not so) hidden feature with iPhone 3.0. I have my iPhone peers already using it. If they use it for emergencies – out in the desert to access email, wiki rattle snake bite they just had. Probably less then 3G traffic per month – will ATT find out that these data usage were tethered – if so how..??

I suspect that the flags go up when there are excessive data usage.
