You probably are aware of tethering and how various devices allow tethering , while there have been many apps released in the past which allow tethering via WiFi . Tetherme uses the same principle which allows you to create a WiFi hotspot to share 3G or EDGE connection with a PC or other WiFi enabled device.
TetherMe dynamically enables native internet tethering for iPhone4, iPhone3GS, iPhone3G running iOS3.x and iOS4.x on all carriers without any customized bundles or settings .
So you can use your iPhone as a WiFi router and is an alternative to costly tethering apps like PdaNet (which comes for $14.99) and MyWi (costing $20) .
TetherMe has been tested to work on all iOS versions from 3.0 to 4.0.1 and works by telling the iPhone to allow tethering on any APN that is used for iPhone data. As a result, you should not be charged extra from your phone company as all tethering data appears to come from the phone itself.
TetherMe also bypasses signature checking and allows you to edit your carrier bundle manually if you so desire. This is required to enable MMS functionality on T-Mobile. TetherMe does NOT enable the loading of APN configurations from .mobileconfig profiles at this time.
