Hi all,

I am just wondering if the new iPad (aka ipad3) will have personal hotspot function is also available for normal 3G users? Like maxis or digi prepaid 3G. (I am currenly using ipad1, jail broken and using mywi to share wifi to my iPhone)

I would Like to keep this sharing of wifi to my iPhone. Everything that I've read, it says that the personal hotspot is there, but am still unsure. So, would like to know from you guys.

Thanks.

Yes I agree. I inserted my sim card and then, head to Settings > General > About.
You will then be prompted to update now or update later when you are in 'About'.
After updating, the Personal Hotspot will be available.
