I just got 'tethering' to work too....
What APN are you using? :)
EDIT:
I used tether me to generate the config file. It suggested telstra.internet. My phone was set to telstra.iph. I set it to that as I'd hate to think that the T would be pleased with me changing APN's. Anyway it worked fine with telstra.iph so I can't see any way they would know or care.
Once this gets out the Optus network is going to get a even worse I suspect (if it's possible) as people may be able to use their internet allowance...
Its no faster, its only the new model 3GS thats quicker. Main updates were the ability to landscape anything using the keyboard, the addition of voice notes, Safari upgrade, supposed bluetooth ability with open market headsets, MMS... FINALLY...... and one or two other internal things.
In the US, you can take your original 3G iPhone to a store, say "Not happy Jan, want the new model" and they copy all your existing info across to a brand new 3GS, say "thanks for coming" and you walk out with a brand spanker for absolutely no cost whatsoever!!
Here and in the UK, you need to pay out your contract and then buy a new one.... :mad::mad:
Can I just say you are right on the main items, however I keep finding lots of little things that are much better. Tiny refinements that seem to be throughout the thing. It really is very good. Especially for Free.
Someone has got to say it. As much as I love Apple I am told they are charging a fair bit for the iphone. It's what they do. Somebody has to pay.
I'm told that the deal that they get in the US does have conditions attached. It's not like I got a new iphone on a contract last week and I'd like another new one.
EDIT: I just noticed they charge for it.
