An App Store app called iTether got a lot of attention a few months ago for allowing free 3G tethering from any iPhone. Despite the fact that carriers don?t officially support such activity apart from their exuberant data plans, Apple originally approved iTether. The app shot to the top of the charts before it was pulled less than a day later. If you didn?t get your hands on it then, you were out of luck.
The creators of iTether are announcing something big today. Tether is launching a new HTML5 web app for the iPhone that lets you tether your 3G-enabled iPhone or iPad to any wireless-enabled device. No monthly fee. No jailbreak required.
?It was clear from our initial application iTether, there was enormous demand within the iPhone ecosystem,? says Tim Burke, CEO of Tether. ?It was unfortunate that Apple decided to remove our application, only 20 hours after we launched. However, this caused us to innovate. Our underlying patent-pending technology behind Tether for iPhone is unlike anything on the market.
Unlike any other tethering solution (unsupported or otherwise) out there, Tether?s new app is entirely web-based. You don?t need to buy the app in the App Store or the jailbreak Cydia store. It creates a?wireless connection over AdHoc that any device can connect to.
As part of the launch promotion, the new Tether service will be available for $15/year through the end of next week. It will then cost $30/year. More information can be found on the Tether website.
