iPhone tip - Use your iPhone’s internet connection with your laptop

Today’s tip shows you how to connect your laptop to the internet using your iPhone’s data connection. Yes, we all know how painfully slow the Edge network can be on your iPhone and it will only be worse on your laptop, but sometimes you need to use apps on your laptop that you just don’t have on your iPhone (yet) and a slow connection is acceptable. You will need SSH on your laptop but since that is platform independent this tip should work on Mac, Linux, or PC.

This will require a Jailbreak iPhone with openSSH installed. Once you have that then visit this short tutorial via Lifehacker to get connected.
