What a F'ing rip off !!!!! o2 have a pay monthly tethering contract of £25 p/ month!!!!

dont understand my contract is £35 as it is with unlimied data so why cant that be used ?

Plus 3.0 over rated *yawn* over and out ...

what??

Agreed, it's a rip off. It's mainly aimed at business customers I think.

jailbreak it & use pdanet for tethering. Sorted ;)

[bez_123]

do you have to jail brake it to use that program?

[Mystic]

Yep, think its a Cydia app!

Used pdanet through cydia yesterday. Seems pretty good.

Won't download anythingver 2mb though. Rate seems to drop down to like 5kbs and seems to freeze the download.

Any other apps to do it?

Is the pdanet actually a 14 day trial?

Thought it was £15 bolt on with o2 for tethering on top of your contract?

i was led to believe that aswell.

even so, still seems quite steep just to able to use a laptop for the same you can on the iphone screen, just the beauty of having it on full size with a decent keyboard.
(i know theres other benefits of being able to use it, but seems a little steep for the base point of it all!)
