Here are a couple of notes from the source:

A couple of the new features in particular will be incredibly useful. You know all those WiFi hotspots we get to use for free from our iPhone/iPad 3G but not from our laptops? Well now when you are at your favorite Fast Food eatery or area Airport you can bridge your laptop to your phone over USB cable and voila WiFi on your laptop. Or how about at a hotel that only let’s one MAC address on the in room WiFi? Signup from your phone instead of your laptop and then let all your devices have at it!

My other favorite is the battery consumption (lower than ever ) and the battery meter. Choose the status bar icon over the annoying blue bars and watch in real time your battery drain level. Lower the transmit power to conserve battery. Plug your phone in to power during those large downloads or extended use periods and see confirmation that your battery charge is on the rise.

Outrageous! They want an extra $10 for the upgrade after I purchased MyWi 3 months ago??? As a software developer I’m not quite sure what’s going on here. Nowhere in the original license agreement was there mention of upgrade fees. At minimum I would expect one year free upgrades, especially for such an app such as this. I could understand $5 after the first year from the original purchase date, but this is crazy. At this rate they will ask for $10 every three months just to keep using it.

Unless they change this policy, count me out as well (and everyone I can influence)!

Does anyone know if MyWi works on iOS 4.1 jb that was released yesterday? Anxious to take some HDR photos but can’t live without MyWi!

The WiFi works fine. The USB doesn’t work but I’m looking into a bunch of possible reasons.
