As much as I really don’t want to give AT&T wireless another penny, I am pretty darn excited about the possibility of an official tethering plan so that you can use your iPhone as a wireless modem.

I have a copy of (the notorious, banned) netshare on my iPhone but I’ve been hesitant to use it for fear of the "AT&T bandwidth police" tracking me down and hassling me.

My iPhone is great for surfing the web and now that I have a copy of LogMeIn on it I have the ability to access and control my home iMac no matter where I might be. But there are still times when I would really like to be able to use my notebook when out and about and not near WiFi. So I’ve been planning on signing up for a tethering plan as soon as it becomes available even at the reported $30 a month charge that has been widely reported.

Now, however, there are rumors running around the web that the plan might actually be significantly cheaper

How ’bout this for some weekend fun…

Pinch’n Pop! is a unique arcade experience featuring realistic physics and true multi-touch interaction. It is a new breed of frantic color matching fun that challenges both your wits and dexterity. Push, flick, and squeeze the self-replicating Squirms to keep their population under control, and maximize your score with color chains and well-timed powerup bursts.

We reviewed (and liked) it HERE.

We’ll be giving away copies tomorrow at 5pm est. The enter to win one just leave one of you favorite iPhone tips or tricks below.

Now this app just cracks me up. The mosquito ringtone is used by teens because those of us a bit (a lot?) older can’t hear it. Teen Torture turns that on it’s head by using the sound to annoy teens. Just start up the app, choose what age group to annoy by selecting a specific frequency and get busy bugging them. If you aren’t a teen you won’t hear it but any teens in you area sure will! No, I’m not spending $.99 on this, but any app that can make me laugh on a cold NJ day at least deserves a post.

— Post From My iPhone

Using the iPhone and iPod Touch as a wireless remote is something many have thought of and there are plenty of options in the App Store to do just that.

Two applications, however, stand out in terms of price and quality: iTap and Air Mouse. They both do what they say, and do it well. And each have key points that make them worth a serious look at.  

Not sure about laying out close to $30 for LogMeIn?

Here’s a great way to help decide if it is right for you.

As we posted yesterday, the Rivet system is a fantastic way to carry your device in a secure, yet streamlined, manner. It’s definitely one of the more innovative ways to carry your iPhone or iPod Touch (or any ofther device).

Speaking of innovation — if you’re signed up as a member of the site you might notice that right below your name is a new link — Invite A Friend. This link makes it super easy for you to tell your iPhone or iPod Touch-loving friend about WOiP. Not only is a nice way to help them get the most from their device, but as more and more of us use the site and share our ideas and experiences WOiP becomes an increasingly good resource for us all.

We have 5 various Rivet systems to give away over the next few days. Entering to win could not be easier.

Just use the Invite A friend link to invite as many of your friends as you like to join us, and thats how many chances to win you’ll have.

Let us know you’ve done so by including the email [email protected] in the To: field of the form (we will automatically enter you in the contest when we get the copy of the email).  The winners will be announced after the random drawing which will occur Sunday night at 10 PM EST. The more friends you email, the more chances you’ll have to win!

Editorial Note: When last we left Jennifer she was getting ready to cut the cord and go off on her in regard to setting up and using her iPod Touch.

On December 31st my iPod and I were sent packing from Wayne’s Mac to my Dell. For those of you that are as new to this world as I am that means I ,once again, had a brand new iTouch. It was reset to factory condition with only the initial applications on it.

I must begin from scratch setting it up from my home base and researching the applications, adding them and testing them.  I will share what I miss, my latest finds and my successes and failures. I never say NO to a challenge, but may procrastinate or complain a little about it.

Alright folks, I was hoping to have a full review ready by today, but unfortunately (or fortunately?), Dungeon & Hero is a bit more in-depth than I thought it would be. So instead of a review I am going to give everyone a first look at this new game to give everyone a little knowledge about it, and I promise a full review posted next week.

Anyone who has played an RPG game before will easily understand Dungeon & Hero when they start playing. It’s just like any other one really. You pick a class, between warrior, archer, and mage, and accept missions. You do the missions, get experience from killing monsters, rewards for finishing the mission, and you level up making you a stronger fighter capable of taking on stronger enemies. Eventually enough of this and you make it all the way to the final boss, and defeat him and you win! Game over.
