Apple Thoughts: Well, Maybe Sometime in 2010

"AT&T's iPhone tethering is something near and dear to my heart. In fact, I may or may not be writing this tethered to my iPhone on a train to New York City right now. We know tethering works on AT&T's network because frankly, we've been doing it using only Apple's software since the iPhone 3.0 betas have been out (and before using PDAnet). To keep tethering possible, all we've had to do is not update to 3.1 - which isn't that easy"

I wasn't really shocked or surprised by this, in fact I really didn't have much of a reaction. Tethering for me isn't a make or break deal, I can take it or leave it. Granted, it would be nice to have that option in case I needed it, but in my situation its not something I just have to have. What are your thoughts?
