iPhone 3G/EDGE sharing app gets killed on App Store
A few hours after Nullriver, Inc. released their NetShare application onto the iTunes App Store, the $9.99 application which promises to allow you to share your iPhone's network connection with your computer was pulled from the store. The obvious reason for the app being removed would be that perhaps Apple doesn't want you sharing your iPhone's Internet connection, which is kind of stupid considering smartphones from the likes of Nokia have had this feature for AGES! The Nullriver folks have yet to receive any word from Apple either:
We're not quite sure why Apple took down the application yet, we've received no communication from Apple thus far. NetShare did not violate any of the Developer or AppStore agreements. We're hoping we'll get some feedback from Apple tomorrow. Sorry to all the folks that couldn't get it in time. We'll do our best to try to get the application back onto the AppStore if at all possible. At the very least, I would hope Apple will allow it in countries where the provider does permit tethering.
