PdaNet
Posted: November 30, 2009
PdaNet is a nifty app for your smartphone that lets you use your phone’s data plan to connect to the Internet when you don’t have access to a Wi-Fi hotspot, landline or Ethernet connection. Previously available for the iPhone, Blackberry, Windows Mobile and Palm OS Treo and Centro, it’s now available for the Android as well. It provides full Internet access so all your email and IM programs will work without changing any settings. Even better, PdaNet does not require root access or hacking your phone’s firmware in order to work and functions like a regular Android application without any need for customization. Tethering is fast and secure and in the USB mode will also charge your phone at the same time. Your phone can either connect to 3G data, Wi-Fi, or even through VPN and PdaNet will share the connection with your computer.
