AT&T Working Hard to Deliver iPhone Tethering Soon?
Mar 11th
According to emails sent from AT&T employees to MacDailyNews readers, the network is working hard to enable iPhone tethering as soon as possible. Many of our readers are still waiting patiently to see when AT&T will flip the switch on iPhone tethering and if you contact AT&T the following are the contents of the cookie cutter reply you will receive in your inbox.
“Thank you for your recent email AT&T. Tethering the iPhone is a priority for us and we are working hard to make it available as soon as possible. As you might imagine, we want to make sure that we deliver a quality customer experience from the start. We don’t have details yet but will be sure to make a news announcement when tethering becomes available. Thanks again for your feedback. We appreciate you taking the time to write.”
We know what you may be thinking but lets give AT&T the benefit of the doubt here and lets pretend we see tethering enabled in the near future, would you prefer to have it implemented right the first time or are you simply sick of waiting and want it enabled now? Or could you care less?
Sound off in the comments below!

Multitasking Support to be Included in Apple’s iPhone 4.0 Software
Mar 11th
AppleInsider is reporting that they are hearing from reliable sources to expect multitasking in Apple’s iPhone 4.0 software. This is not the first time we’ve heard about multitasking being included in 4.0 but if it does hold up to be true it should silence many of the iPhone haters out there while making all iPhone owners jump for joy.
The iPhone currently does do some very minimal multitasking with apps such as email and iPod, but those of you with jailbroken devices are well aware that the iPhone can handle full blown multitasking with ease. Apple has just been shy to enable it since day one claiming it would bring poor battery performance along with various security threats.
The sources also claim the 4.0 software is still a long way off from being finished (this summer) so show some patience as good things come to those who wait.
Anyone else excited for some iPhone 4.0?
[Thanks to everyone who sent this in!]

Inventor of Cell Phone Gave iPhone to Grandson, Tweets on Droid?!
Mar 11th
No doubt a genius, but perhaps also Woz-centric (think eccentric but with technology founding stripes), cell phone inventor Martin Cooper always likes to have the latest and greatest mobile device on the planet. Ish, according C-SPAN:
> Right now I’m using the Droid, because I want to get some experience with the Android operating system, and I, so far have some favorable results.
He also likes to Tweet from it — he’s @MartyMobile if you want to follow along. In his defense, however, he did have an iPhone. He gave it to his grandson. Lucky kid!

New Gestures in iPhone SDK 3.2 for iPad?
Mar 10th
9to5Mac continues its tradition of tearing through new iPhone 3.2 SDK for iPad betas, this time digging into beta 4 and finding:
In the gestures folder, you’ll see two new types of commands (3Tap.plist and LongPress.plist) that are certainly not implemented in the current 3.1 iPhone SDK.
No idea what these mean yet, but if you were Apple, what would you use the triple tap and long press for? (Aside from morse code!)

No TiPb Live Tonight, More GDC Coverage to Come!
Mar 10th
Apologies everyone but there won’t be a TiPb Live! tonight due to me being at GDC 2010, Chad being sick, and Mickey being horribly disappointed in the both of us.
We’ll try to make it up to you with some more great GDC coverage, however. I’ve shot tons of video for TiPb Apps and will be posting it up in the feed asap. If you’re hungry for instant content, I’m posting notes over on Twitter. Otherwise hang tight, we’ll have a round up later this week.
(Also did some moonlighting for PreCentral.net and WMExperts, so if you want to see what the competition is up to with webOS and Windows Phone 7 Series, check that out).
