I know there are a lot of IPhones out there and I could use some help with aps. I know I don't utilize mine as well as I should.

I thought I read something about an ap that lets you access files on your computer. Anybody know about this one?

Also, what APs do you find to be the most useful for your phone?

Thanks

While the iPhone is capable of tethering it, its AT&T that doesnt allow it on their network.......so as you mentioned with Jailbroken iPhone , yes you can do so ,,,and you can do it on European networks too :)

That's IT!! Thanks a bunch, I should have known you would have the answer.

Looks like a couple other options in the reviews to check out.

I have a jailbroken Iphone that I now use for music and games. I just load it with apps from Appulous. As a phone, I was really disappointed with the Bluetooth feature. I have had Nokia, Sony and Blue Ant headphones with it and thought the quality was poor, even the whole interface for connecting through bluetooth leaves a lot to be desired.
