Enable Tethering to iPhone / iPad / iPod Touch using iTether

Last month we got a full coverage of MyWi which enables Wireless Tethering to your device using WiFi so it consumes the battery life of your device! Today we gout our hands on a new app called iTether, it allows you to tether your iPhone to iPad, or iPod Touch via the built-in Bluetooth tethering feature including your iPhone by creating a Personal Area Network (PAN) which won't kill your battery!
Features:
  • High performance
  • No jailbreak required on iPhone side ( if no patching )
  • Much lower battery consumption than WiFi tethering
  • Bluetooth 2.1 speed up to 3,000,000 bps
  • Clean interface with zero configuration
  • Rapid Bluetooth chip booting up
  • Better security than WiFi WEP
  • Free upgrades
iTether is developed by iBluever and it's available in Cydia via Big Boss Repo only for $4.99
