I’m getting around by using my iPhone’s Edge connection. This is dial-up speed. It’s horrible. I kinda wish I had a 3G at the moment…

I may have to spring for internet access when I get back home.

I was one of the lucky few who were able to buy it from Apple last year (and then get a refund no less) and still have it installed on my iPhone. I was a bit shaky on setting it up, but I found a great site which illustrates this perfectly.

I was up in no time. To make changing to NetShare a seamless proposition, I created a new network location on my Mac so I don’t have to fiddle with TCP/IP and Proxy settings. I tested it and NetShare still works great. I now have internet access anywhere I have cell phone coverage. I’m using the slower Edge network, but any speed is a good speed when you otherwise have no internet connection.

I purchased my copy of NetShare on August 1, 2008. Here is my original article about NetShare and Apple’s actions regarding this app, published August 3, 2008.

NETSHARE, BANNED FROM THE APPSTORE

Looks like Apple has decided they will not be allowing any tethering applications in the AppStore. As such, NetShare will not be available in the iTunes AppStore. We are seeing a lot of similar reports from various developers who’s applications were abruptly removed and banned from the AppStore without any violations of the terms of service. This is all unfortunate news for the iPhone platform end-users.
