… not one of your 'gurus' but I blithely applied the update yesterday anticipating this may be the case. The result: 'enable tethering' option is still available in Settings > General
As you'd know it wasn't in the original set-up with Telstra.
But I haven't actually checked it still works …

Hi gurus!

I just upgraded to iTunes 8.2.1.

When I connected my iPhone to charge it up/ synch it, I got the following message: "An update to the carrier settings for your iPhone is available now. Would you like to install it now?"

Further details are available at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1970.

I am a little cautious about doing this, because I fear this may enable Telstra to turn off internet tethering, which has been a godsend to me.

Can anyone report that this upgrade is harmless?

Cheers
Rob
