Did you get it? Those lucky enough to have grabbed Nullriver’s NetShare during “App Store Availability Periods 1 and 2” can share their iPhone’s EDGE or 3G Internet connection with their computer.
After first making Nullriver’s US$9.99 NetShare application for iPhone and iPhone 3G available via their App Store, and then pulling it, and then selling it again, Apple has once again pulled the app from public sale. It comes up in iTunes Store search, but generates a “currently not available” message when clicked:
MacDailyNews Note: We tried a number of iTunes Store’s around the world and couldn’t find NetShare available in any of the countries we checked. Let us know if you find it.
[Thanks to MacDailyNews Reader “David” for the heads up.]
What’s going on? We have no idea (but, see AT&T’s iPhone Terms and Conditions below). All we know is that we have the app and it works. And Verizon is about to lose multiple $60/mo. EVDO accounts from us if it keeps working as it does now.
