Thanks Ronni I have also used the iPhone personal hotspot from time to time without a problem but most of the time I log into friends & relies WiFi systems. I have a Telstra pre paid and with the bonuses that comes with it I have never been able to use it up in-spite of the fact that we never use the house phone for any out going calls.
Seeing that the iPad 2 has been out for a fair while now I am wondering just when the next model is likely to appear. Its usually my luck to by something and have it superseded in a couple of weeks.
