And just like with tethering, it will be up to the carrier to decide
if they will support the feature, and if they do, how much they will
charge you for it. Given AT&T's history with aforementioned
tethering, I wouldn't hold your breath... But hey, with competition
may come additional pressure to be competitive. (emphasis on 'may')

It will cost AT&T less to implement (and charge for) "hotspotting" than it would to NOT allow the feature and lose customers to their chief rival, who will have it....

Well, we don't *know* yet what VZ will be offering in the way of data plans,
tethering, etc.

And that is absolutely the best part of Verizon getting the iPhone;
giving AT&T competition it's not yet had to deal with.

You've got the grandfathered unlimited plan too, right? I guess AT&T isn't flagging you as if it were tethered? That would really give us unlimited holdouts a bonus. Wonder how long that lasts after the official release hits market?

I have been using iCal to sync with my iphone but lately it's been really buggy so I was wondering if you think I would have better luck using google calendar to sync with iphone?
Thanks
This email was beamed to you by way of Allan's iPhone 4

The main reason for my post is that I consider the iPhone as a small
hand held computer with telephonic features. So my concern is whether
the Verizon version compromises, even slightly, any of the integrated
computer function of the iPhone. The only reason I downplay AT&T is
that they have no service along the upper reaches of the North Shore
of Lake Superior. Not that Verizon's is all that great along the
whole shore and practically no coverage over Sawbill Trail, Caribou
Trail, and only two places on Gunflint Trail.

Subject: [apple-iphone] clock alarm question
I like to use the standard clock>alarm app when I am traveling but I don't like
all the alert sounds, like arriving email, during the night. I have been scaired
to silence the phone by using the hard button on the side for fear that it will
silence the alarm clock, too. Has anyone figured this out?
