Thanks Lynn. That was a good read. I was intending to jailbreak my 3G iPhone in order to tether it, but there is a little blurb there which says,
"Computer programs, in the form of firmware or software, that enable used wireless telephone handsets to connect to a wireless telecommunications network, when circumvention is initiated by the owner of the copy of the computer program solely in order to connect to a wireless telecommunications network and access to the network is authorized by the operator of the network." I read that to mean that AT&T can still say that tethering is forbidden and I am still legally obligated to comply. <sigh> Bob On Jul 26, 2010, at 10:35 AM, Lynn Fredricks wrote: >> http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/10/07/26/us_government_legalizes_ >>> iphone_jailbreaking_for_unauthorized_apps.html >>> >>> -- watch for line breaks > > Id like to know what the sources have been for this information - the rumor > sites have started their share of rumors based on very poor readings of > press releases or other information. > > The only information I could find on the LOC site was this one: > > http://www.loc.gov/today/pr/2010/10-169.html > > This does cover the use of handsets, but am I wrong or does this narrow the > scope of the kinds of applications that would be affected? > > Best regards, > > Lynn Fredricks > President > Paradigma Software > http://www.paradigmasoft.com > > Valentina SQL Server: The Ultra-fast, Royalty Free Database Server > > _______________________________________________ > use-revolution mailing list > use-revolution@lists.runrev.com > Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription > preferences: > http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
