Tethering Is Exhilarating (With the Nexus One)

Posted by kdawson on from the free-to-roam dept.

timothy found this link (hat-tip to Tim O'Reilly) to a paean to the joys of tethering. "In a short post, Steve Souders explores the current state of tethering 3G connections via iPhone (on which he basically gives up, for the perfectly decent reason of not wanting to jailbreak his iPhone) and the Nexus One, with which he has great success. His writeup serves as a micro-tutorial ('use PdaNet's Android app') as well as an endorsement."

    No apps. Crappy screen. Violates dozens of Apple patents. OS based on Lin-sux. Why bother?

    I always knew that my general distaste for Apple Computer and its afficionados was based in fact. Thank you for the confirmation.

    Semantics. I can't do what I want with the iPhone. I don't give a shit about which part of the system is broken.
