if you jail broke your iPhone, and you reflashed it with the original
firmware, flashing it with a separate using account other than that which
you originally jailbroke it will restore it and apple will not be able to
tell you jailbroke it in the first place

But Apple Care hardly covers anything, so it probably won't matter.

For anyone interested, anyone using an iPhone with a 1gb or greater data
plan through Rogers Canada receives free tethering. Tethering has been free
through Rogers Canada since the iPhone 3g s was released last July.

I guess that's interesting in sort of a theoretical tech way, but I don't
really see the point.
You're paying for two data plans (AT&T and Verizon), which is probably
costing you at least $90 a month for both of the mobile data plans, not
counting your regular wireless calling charges. You can use Skype without
being near a hot spot, but you must have your laptop powered up, connected
to wireless data, its wireless network reconfigured to ad-hoc, and connect
the iPhone to the laptop's wireless. Then, you can use Skype on the iPhone,
true, but, after all of that, you might as well be running it on the laptop.
Running it on the laptop would just involve starting the laptop, connecting
to Verizon, and running Skype.
Maybe you mean to say that you only use the iPhone's Wifi connection, but I
don't see how this is so. I don't think that AT&T gives you the option of
not paying for a data service with the iPhone. You must pay for the $30
data.
For $100, you can get unlimited iPhone data and voice calls. Then, you can
talk all you want. No need for Skype. Your battery will also last longer.
That isn't capable of cheap international calls, but, like I said above, if
you must use the laptop to gain access to Skype for the iPhone, you might as
well be running Skype on the laptop.
I suppose that you're using the iPhone as a wireless modem by using the
tethering profiles for download on that Austrian web site that have been
passed around. Of course, Apple helpfully blocked that out for AT&T in the
latest OS update.

Subject: Reversing My Thinking Never Felt So Good On The iPhone 3GS
Hello My Fellow iPhone and iPod Touchers,
As some of you may know, later today, Wednesday, I will be trekking down to
San Diego to attend the CSUN convention.
As you may guess, I would never go anywhere without a reliable means of
connecting to the Internet on one of my portable computers.
However, since my assimilation into the Apple Orchard, it is not enough to
merely have broadband access on my computer but I now insist on having it
(as WiFi) on my trusty iPhone 3GS for many reasons not the least of which
being that I now, almost exclusively, use it for Skype on a daily basis.
Truthfully, after having use the app on my iPhone 3GS, the thought of being
tethered to my computer albeit either a notebook or a Netbook in order to
use Skype comfortably, is almost laughable.
But Wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Currently, one cannot use Skype, on the iPhone that is, via Edge or 3G; that
is to say, it can only be used via WiFi. What to do?
I'm sitting here typing this and laughing out loud at the thought, that,
since the iPhone 3GS' release last July, I haven't seen any articles or
received any request for assistance on the dilemma I found myself in as I
prepared to go where many have gone before, until just a few days ago.
(Smile)
What I mean to say is that as of the date of its release, virtually everyone
wanted a way to tether their computer to the iPhone, using it like a high
speed broadband MODEM, an almost effortless feat to achieve on my beloved
Samsung Epix Windows Mobile phone. (Big, big smile) (That was for all you
Apple Koolade drinkers!!!)
Not to brag, but like many, without having to jail break the device, I was
able to turn my iPhone 3GS into a broadband MODEM within mere days of its
purchase. You see, the trick was... But I digress. Sorry.
Getting Back To The Point:
Unlike previous trips, this time I wish to continue to use my mobile device
(the iPhone) in the same way I use it here at home on my wireless network.
Get it? You see, instead of wanting the iPhone to act as an Internet
conduit for my computer, I want the computer to act as a WiFi hotspot
(conduit) for my iPhone. This concept is referred to as "Reverse
Tethering".
My Solution?
In addition to being an A T & T Wireless customer, I am also a Verizon
Wireless customer and as such, I have a Verizon Wireless Air Card. It is
generally accepted that the Verizon wireless Air Cards (via EVDO) provide
noticeably faster data access than does A T & T Wireless. To be honest,
this is the primary reason I continue to subscribe to Verizon Wireless.
Although I am blessed to have several portable computers from which to
choose, the only two I seriously considered taking with me were my MacBook
Pro 13-inch or my Acer (Aspire One), 7-inch Windows 7 Ultimate Netbook. Of
course, my Verizon Wireless Air Card works beautifully on them both. As a
side note, "yes" the Air Card works on my MacBook either in Snow Leopard, in
a Windows 7 Virtual machine, or in Windows 7 via BootCamp.
Because of the much more convenient size of the Acer and its substantially
lesser value, I chose it over the MacBook Pro.
Oh! I almost forgot. The solution to reverse tethering the iPhone to any
wireless capable computer, including Desktop models, is to setup an ad-hoc
wireless network.
Beware! Now that reverse tethering is beginning to become more popular,
especially since the announcement of the iPad, do not be tricked into
purchasing any software that will configure this setup for you; because,
setting up such a configuration, on either the Mac or Windows 7, takes only
a few steps to accomplish and doesn't require any additional software.
Yep! "Reversing my thinking never felt so good, on the iPhone 3GS."
