Has this topic been discussed before? Excuse me if it has! I haven't seen it discussed before... but then again I could have missed something.
Basically, I think it'd be great if my MB could use my iPhone to access the EDGE network. In short, if I'm paying $20/month for unlimited data... why can't I get my laptop to connect to my iPhone (via the normal connector)... and then surf the net (etc) using the iPhone as my "antenna" for my laptop?
Would anyone else think this was cool? You'd essentially get a full screen for internet surfing vs. a small iPhone screen. Imagine at faster (3G) speeds in the future too. For me, I'd use it when Wi-Fi wasn't available for my MB.... but I could get and EDGE signal.
Well, maybe there are technical difficulties... and maybe AT&T wouldn't like this. But, I think it'd be cool.
