Update 2: I have now installed the new beta build on my iPhone 3G and I can now confirm that iPhone 3.0 Beta 3 makes Skype calls over the 3G network not possible. (please see screen shot below)
Update 3: This new version fixed my YouTube problem which started on the first version of iPhone 3.0. Finally it’s been fixed. This is a lot snappier as well compared to the last build.
Finally I have been able to make Internet Tethering to work on my iPhone 3G. I had made successful pairing to my MacBook. I tested tethering via Bluetooth and USB – both are working all just fine. Now I think with this new feature, I may need a bigger data bundle.
