Then use Internet Sharing in System Preferences like I mentioned. It will let you take your wired connection and put out a small wireless network for your iPod touch to use.
Got a tip for us?

You have to open up an app that has background notifications such as Tap Tap Revenge 2. It will let you know that you can enable notifications, and ask you if you want to. Once you enable that, it will show up in the settings.
Thank you sir!! Now I just gotta wait for the damn Beejive update!!!! to see how that works!!!

Seeing what I would characterize as "significant" lag, when responding to SMS / MMS texts. Anyone else??

You've got it the wrong way round - tethering only works on the iPhone and is to share your iPhone's data connection with your computer, not your computer data connection with your device.
how long should the update take? I've downloaded it but itunes has said "preparing iphone for software update..." for over 10 minutes.
edit: Oh itunes froze, looks like I gotta restore my phone, great.

There should also probably be a new release of AIM soon that has push-notifications. Developers got to test it for 7 days a couple of weeks ago.
Any moment now, actually.
I downloaded & installed succesfully, then I updated some calendar stuff and started to sync again.
I live in the states near Seattle but now my phone is speaking a new language to me...at least during it's second syncing.
Hmm for some reason your iPhone is now speaking Danish
Can't believe my manager is actually going to make me sit here and finish my shift instead of leaving early in an "emergency fashion" for the 3.0 upgrade
Wow, it's been ages since I've seen those four words tied together like that.

I'm not seeing the push notification setting either. I've restarted the phone, re downloaded AP News and Text free and I still don't see it.

You need an iPhone 3GS. The iPhoneOS 3.0 update won't provide the feature via software. It's a hardware feature of the new iPhone.

I have a 1st gen Touch, and bought the 2.0 last year... I wonder if I should jump again to 3.0 because it doesn't seem as important as 2.0 (which requires to run app store apps).
Feel kinda rip off as a 1st gen Touch user.
I wonder what happens to those 1st gen Touch user that never downloaded 2.0, will they automatically jump from 1.0 to 3.0?
