At the risk of arousing the moderators outside of Frydae......

I think that Verizon wireless can provide equipment to do this with my IPhone 4,
but it costs a good many extra gazinks for the privilege.� So this is significant.

Has anyone tried the iPhone version (http://www.junefabrics.com/iphone/index.php)?

Apparently it doesn't have Apple's blessing, so what is this "jailbreak" entail that they discuss?

Anthony

This is for those that travel with a laptop and a smart phone (at least for
Android).� Right now, boondocking in Santa Cruz, I have a very good
Internet connection using my Droid X and the laptop.� I'm using a free app
called PdaNet <http://junefabrics.com/android/>
Easy to install (requires a program for the laptop also) and one click to
start.� So, if you travel with a phone that has 3g or 4g service and you
are getting� that sevice on your phone you have access for you laptop.
Great instead of hunting for a Starbucks or MacDonalds to get wifi.� Or if
you have poor wifi service like I did last night at a casino RV park.
