Exactly! I They're not going to tell you to stop; they'll just tell you they're adding the tethering fee on your next bill if you continue to use whatever tethering app you want.

You can fix that by giving your Tab an IP address manually.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Consumer Reports has "recommended" the 4S. So this issue is clearly a non-issue.

Thank you for an honest answer.

See? Just like I said. The only reason they say they don't want it is that Apple won't give it to them, so they pretend 3.5" is the best screen size...ever...to console themselves because they can't have anything bigger. Anything else sucks; until, of course, Apple gives them something bigger.

Four feet! Now that MIGHT hurt portability just a bit. :)

Ironically, all the people saying they would hate a bigger screen will be singing a different tune when Apple finally breaks down and innovates by giving them the world's first, magical, bigger-than-3.5-inch screen. Then they'll be fawning at the wonder Apple has wrought, and bragging about how Apple's implementation…

The master key on 90's era 300ZX was made of a titanium alloy; sexy for the time.

Who cares? It's recommended by Consumer Reports now!

79% of consumers will buy a tablet from Amazon if it costs less than $250. (Retrevo)

I'm no fan of Apple, but have to admit their marketing is brilliant. One of my best friends called me as soon as he got his 4S to brag about Siri. After telling me all it could do (most of which I've been doing with Android for over a year), I told him "Yeah, let me know how you're making out with her in a couple of…

It seems you're a tiny bit upset :) In all seriousness, I can't say I blame you.

It's fun to jab at Apple, but I've never understood why people with issues can't come to the simple, reasonable solution you point out. If you clearly have a problem, why live with it?

So just carry a spare battery! Oh, wait...

True. I just wish we'd stop taking certain areas of science as fact, though. I hate the fact that, once upon a time, and I had to answer that there were nine planets in our solar system, and the last one was Pluto. If I answered anything else, I was told I was WRONG. Who would have thought, as we now know, that I…

Ah, but we can observe the effects of gravity every single day; hence why we can't jump to the Moon. But, are you prepared to tell me, even if the theory that's the subject of this article is shown to be true (because we can actually observe what's going on), that stars were producing organic compounds at the dawn of…

No, it was just my way of expressing what you did with different words: no matter what they discover, we still won't KNOW anything. And I never said this team was looking for funds, but you can bet another one will. And they will shortly tell us the latest in a string of theories that we will never be certain of. I…

Ah...yet another theory on the original of life. How long before this one is discredited by a competing team looking for research funds? I saw nothing in the source article that says they've proven anything. "We think..." "The source remains an assumption."

Yup; can't disagree. It is funny, though, how we've come to think we DO need so much of our junk. People can't pay their mortgages, but they won't give up their iPhones!

I have a Tab 10.1 because I like gadgets, but I agree with you and tell people the same: nobody NEEDS a tablet.
