Any update on AT&T's plans to enable the use of the tethering feature on the iPhone in the US?

Yes -- they announced it in June. It's a $20 add-on (I think) to the iPhone data plan. But you have to switch to the 2GB data plan--can't keep your unlimited plan and tether.

That's a real Morton's fork.

Re: Cellphones and Other Wireless

So, has anybody resolved the iPhone v. HTC debate yet? My contract on the Iphone 3G is almost up and I'm no big fan of the touchscreen or the rapidly declining battery time. On the other hand, one of the relatively few things I use my iPhone for that I can't do just as easily on almost any phone is use it as an iPod.

Can the Droid system sync and play music from iTunes pretty seamlessly?

When I was making that choice, about a year ago, the answer was no. Which I think is an integral part of Apple's strategy.

I bought the 3GS and have been happy with it, but you know the issues. I use it more as an ipod than as a phone, so its okay.

Iphone 4 really solves the battery life issues.

I don't charge my iphone every day and I can't remember the last time it went red.

They haven't solved the inability to make a single undropped call longer than a minute though.
