Well, just read somewhere that on version 4.3, your iPhone can be a modem. So, whoever have an iPad wifii can simply get connected by using your iPhone. This is a good news. Time to buy an iPad. Really eyeing on this gadget but worry about 3G and wifii cause I do not want to jailbreak my iPhone to make it as a modem. And on the other hand, I also do not want to wast a few bucks on 3G iPad. Hopefully 4.3 will release soon.

i own a wifi only ipad and htc desire running android 2.2, my phone can be a wifi hotspot (android 2.2 out of thebox function) for my ipad.... so i dont have any issue or difficulties using only wifi ipad wherever i go. if i want to surf using ipad, i just need to turn on the wifi hotspot on my phone.

There you go...wifi teethering on a phone right out of the box.

Yup, ipad + android phone = ultimate mobility... till iphone not comeout with tether capability, i wont change my phone to iphone...

Agreed!

My iPAD tether with HTC Desire. Battery drain off for phone also faster

All iPhones reported to get Personal Hotspot with iOS v. 4.3

Tethering my ipad with vivaz...kinda slow @home,full bar also...thought it was a waste of money...didnt expect to hv good connection @opis,only few bar also

I'm waiting for the release of iOS4.3. Too troublesome to install Mywi on my iPhone.

If you google, you should find a way to install mywi easily. I did it for a few of my friends iphone. Just like you install any normal apps.

Good luck

dear all sifu of ipads, i'm currently using blackberry bold 2 and an ipad wifi only......

really have no idea how to wifi tethering? huhuhu....... does that mean i have to change phone in order accomodate with wifi tethering?

cause really do not want to pay for 2 data plans which eventually will cost us a bomb everymonth.... kekeke.....

Steamyx unifi, BIS maxis, then another Ipad data plan...phew....

I think blackberry only have usb tethering. Cannot do wifi tethering aka wifi hotspot.

Or u can do bluetooth tethering refer here http://forums.crackberry.com/f134/finally-...ifi-ftw-475732/

But it is quite troublesome.

Or the best way, is sell ur blackberry and buy android phone or other phone that support wifi hotspot. That's wat i did, i sold my bold 9700 and buy htc desire.

hmmm......... but i do like the Blackberry bbm and all ....... nice and easy..... changing phone..... hmm...... have to think about it la.....

I've been thinking like wat u think, i love bbm... But then whynot use ym? Msn? Gtalk? Watsapp? All r the same instant messaging, u can talk with each other not only to bb owner. And the best part is surfing the net on ur touch screen phone is awesome compare to the small screen and lag blackberry. That's why i dump my bb and buy better phone wi more functions... Bb now is obselete bcoz we have more choice on better spec phone and internet connectivity for 24/7 r cheap now compare to 10 years ago when bb is the major player of mobile internet.

I am not sure about BB wifi teethering or can it even be done. Basically wifi teethering is running a software on your phone to utilise your phone 3G services and make your phone into a wifi hotspot so that other devices like laptop or ipad can connect and suft the net. So do BB has a wifi teethering software or not? You might want to google for that.

So before you rush out to get a new phone to do teethering, make sure you check if that particular phone model can do teethering.

calmshot : i totally understand what u meant, i think i would take ur advise and just get a new fancy phone, most probably android phone which i can make it as a wifi hotspot for my laptop and ipad...kekeke thx thx....


lightning69 : i do take ur advise into considetation as well ....hmmm, i've been googling abt BB wifi teethering, all i got to know is to add a device for it..... which msia tak ada..... keke.... thx thx

I love using iPad at home, especially bedtime. Laptop too heavy. Net book kinda hot n battery can't last long as iPad.

I using hero n x10 for Gtalk.

I still prefer using Mifi for Internet connection.

So bold2 cannot tethering with ipad? Can anybody conform it

gone are the days of using our phone's modem and bluetooth the signal to our laptops or gadgets.. since ipad can receive bluetooth there has got to be a way to connect it using bt.. someone create an app for it please... (i realized i am calling a program an app now.. funny)
