Not that that's a good thing...]]>Feb 4th 2010 1:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/Feb 4th 2010 5:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/
Correct. The Pre is new so you hear about the homebrew stuff a lot. Once it has been around for about a year, the focus on it will be less on sites like engadget and live mainly on the periphery (where it belongs, actually :).

Apple and Palm have different stances on this type of stuff, but there's not much either can do. At least Palm/Sprint are not fighting a winless battle.]]>Feb 4th 2010 6:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/
You're better off 'obtaining' Mobile Hotspot, installing the FreeTether service, and using a patch for Mobile Hotspot that sets up the communication between the two.]]>Feb 4th 2010 2:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/
"You're better off 'obtaining' Mobile Hotspot" you talk about violating licenses and then recommend 'obtaining' Mobile Hotspot, when MHS is not officially available for non-VZ Pre's and the only way to 'obtain' it is by getting a illegally distributed copy..]]>Feb 4th 2010 5:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/Feb 4th 2010 5:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/Feb 4th 2010 5:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/
@jhoff80 The current beta version focused on in this article does not use marvel wifi driver. The previous one that did I don't see how it violated GPL License consiering it was used to install onto a phone that already addressed the GPL License agreement on a PDF pre-installed to the phone.

@Elranzer ehhh.... Okay]]>Feb 4th 2010 3:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/Feb 4th 2010 5:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/
Here's my response to the "poor" method I believe you're speaking of http://forums.precentral.net/homebrew-apps/191213-my-tether-tether-over-wifi-usb-bt-114.html#post1861634

"I'm just going by what's been said by those that know much more than I do on the subject." maybe you should try forming your own opinions by researching the matters involved.]]>Feb 4th 2010 5:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/
Anyway, water under the bridge now that you've conformed to properly established standards :)

Oh, and re: GPL violations, I believe they're referring to you including the GPL wifi driver in old versions without following GPL guidelines]]>Feb 10th 2010 12:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/Feb 4th 2010 5:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/mytether will share over wifi, usb & bluetooth, mhs will do wifi only. However, mytether has been known to 'break' certain 1.3.5 3D apps on the sprint side, due to its use of an old kernel. Hopefully that is all irrelevant on the vz side of the house.]]>Feb 4th 2010 6:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/03/webos-homebrew-mytether-app-updated-brings-wifi-hotspots-to-ver/Feb 4th 2010 7:30PM
