No tethering on XT? How about a free T-Stick instead.

Free....ish!

So some of you may have seen that Telecom have just announced that from tomorrow they are giving away prepaid Mobile Broadband T-Sticks worth $99. Now I know this isn’t really for iPhone… but for those that lost the ability to tether it could be a good opportunity to get back online whilst out and about. We have been looking into this so hit the read more link to find out more about the offer and how you can get your hands on one.

Warning for XT and 2degrees users: iPhone OS 3.1 disables tethering

No Tethering

A quick heads-up. The new OS 3.1, launched this morning, will break tethering for XT and 2degrees users. Do not download it if you require tethering, but go right ahead and update if you don’t.
