    Droid1. Barnacle says ipod/ipads can connect to internet with it with a rooted phone but idk if it will read as 3g wich means no o&c at work or if it will act like wifi....

    If I had an iPod Touch or iPad, I'd test it since I have a rooted Droid 1.

    Sorry to be the one to give the bad news but the app market isn't allowing rooted tethering apps anymore. You can google it but my free tether app does not work now because off this.

    If you root your Android to Froyo (2.2) or Gingerbread (2.3) you can use the built-in function to turn your phone into a wifi-hotspot. I just tested the connection on my iPad and it works.

    Do you have unlimited data plan though?

    O&c works great with my rooted evo. The iPad will see it as wifi, since it is wifi for it.

    If one is rooted, I don't see how they can stop it.
