iPhone Modem app offers quick, easy tethering for jailbroken iPhones

We saw the sad news yesterday that the ‘official’ tethering app NetShare will not be making a return to the AppStore, but that does not mean that all tethering will be shut down. The latest app iPhone Modem not only promises a tethering option but a quick and easy option that should work in just 10 seconds.
So far it sounds great, but there are some catches. First off this is for jailbroken iPhones which means that will not be a good option for some, but if you are willing then it can be found in the Networking section of either Cydia or Installer. The second catch is that it currently only works with Mac OS 10.5, but they are “actively working on versions for Microsoft Windows, Mac OS 10.4.”

Finally, although personally I feel its fairly priced, this is not a free app, currently its listed as shareware and costs $9.99. Of course, should you decide to tether and end up getting into some trouble with your carrier (AT&T) you cannot say that we did not warn you first, so our best advice, use this with some caution.
