New iPhone 3G S

June 19th, 2009 No comments

So I bought a new 32GB iPhone 3G S this morning at a Rogers Plus store. Was painless and, since I give them so much money each month, I received the $299 pricing.

Different from last time is that the staff activated the phone before handing it over.

I plugged it into iTunes which offered to restore my previous unit’s backup and I’m good to go. Smooth!

iPhone OS 3.0, Tethering and Rogers

June 18th, 2009 No comments

I thought I’d let everyone know that I upgraded my iPhone 3G to iPhone OS 3.0 yesterday and tethering Just Works™ over both Bluetooth PAN and USB. In fact, it’s much simpler to use than I expected.

I have an original 6G data plan with Rogers and according to their FAQ, this is a supported feature and I am not going to get a multi-thousand dollar bill next month. :)
