    I just had to use some non-approved techniques to open up tethering on my Verizon i910 Omnia.


    If we're paying for the connection and staying within the limits of "unlimited", then who's to say what device can be connected to it and how?


    It's nothing but a way to wring a few more bucks from the customer and it's unfair.

    The lead photo doesn't make much sense.. comparing illegal jailbroken iPhone apps to normal Android apps? Bah. We're equally screwed in the iPhone universe. Worse, actually, as at this point tethering is illegal period, regardless of carrier. Also, the iPhone App Store is carrier and country specific as well, creating an uneven experience (same goes for iPods).

    @Evodico:

    I think they are showing the lack of sanctioned tethering as an inability of the devices to be able to "talk" to each other, not to make any comparisons or draw any similarities to jailbreaking and non-sanctioned tethering apps.


    Pretty sure, anyway.

    @strider_mt2k: Don't know. I didn't see it that way. I mean "Want to talk about it?" suggests one consoling the other, while "Shut up" and the choice of apps on screen not-so-subtly showcases what one can do and the other is bitter about.


    That's just me.. and I love my (jailbroken) iPhone, but I also like to keep it fair when bashing the competition. You know, apples to apples, etc.

    @Evodico: I can see that, sure.


    Maybe it's just my familiarity with Gizmodo's style that made me see it like I did.

    I have a question: Couldn't companies that want to get multitouch or any other competing patented technology) on their product leave a way for a user to add on something like this?

    @Wes Elliott: Hey guys - sorry about the confusion - some HTML weirdness made that step unclear.


    What you have to do is hit the enter key twice, then type telnetd, then hit enter once more. The instructions to hit enter are what dropped out of that blockquote.


    It's fixed now so give it another go and hopefully that will fix the problems you guys are having.
