I work from home sometimes and my internet at home was down. I needed to finish my work in an hour so i used one of the 7 days of use on the trial version. This saved me from having to find a free wifi area and embarassment.

Because I can.

That’s pretty much it until I get a laptop.

I’m curious, when does this get decided?

Even though I am an Apple fanboy, I tether when I need to show my family and friends things that the BlackBerry can do, that the iPhone cannot (without jailbreaking). Also, I use tetherberry for downloading podcasts, when I’m on the road and absolutely don’t have access to wifi.

I ride the bus from NJ to NY everyday and back for work. I also commute down to DC fairly often on the train. I tether my BB Bold to my Macbook via Windows XP running under VMWare. Would be very nice to be able to tether directly to the Mac without emulation! Mostly so I can read your website of course

Tethering helps me when I’m away from my wife and my young child. I take week long trips and I’m usually in a car all day. Sometimes I see unusual things on the road and I would take photos of it. Then I would pull over, plug my camera into the laptop, teether to my provider and email the photos to my wife. My wife would then show the photos to my little girl. At times, I would also teether and phone my family using Skype, while on the road, all by using the laptop and connecting to my provider.

Obviously, I use it for work purposes as well, but I find a greater enjoyment staying in touch with my family.

I am a student of computer science and political science looking towards graduate school. What this combination means is that I like writing large papers on complex issues and playing with technology in the process. One of these technologies is the cloud. While I love writing in LaTeX, I have often thought of moving projects to cloud applications like Google Docs so that I can be free to use different operating systems and computers without losing access to my work (I also run a project that uses Linux on computers that go out to the poor, so I spend a lot of time working with that OS). The problem is that we haven’t really moved to ubiquitous WiFi access yet and Macs don’t have integrated 3G.

Having waited for the beta of TetherBerry for sometime (follow on twitter, signed up for beta, et al), I realize how much I need it last month. A group of my friends and I took the 27 hour drive to DC while I hacked away in the car on a conference paper, on access to technology, that was due within a couple days and woefully incomplete. On the way back, somewhere in rural PA, I finished, fifteen minutes before the deadline, but it occurred to me that I couldn’t upload the pdf with my 8830. I was stuck. I had to call several people until one woke up, by that time it was late. Everything worked out, but the reoccurring moral of the story is that I am much more mobile than WiFi is. That’s why, despite being a poor student, I put up the money for my wonderful Alltel 8830. Every month, it somehow bails me out of some situations. I’ve had a blackberry for three years, so thats 36 stories to write -_-’

Considering how excited I am about Tetherberry, I would start if it is would get me the software!

As a photographer, Tetherberry (when released for Mac) will allow me to remain on the scene of photo assignments and spot news longer and submit my photographs back to my newspaper in a much more timely manner than now. Late-night sports assignments can be filed as soon as they are finished instead of waiting until after a long drive back to the newspaper office in the wee hours of the morning.
