NullRiver 'Working with Apple' on Bringing Back Netshare

I just received this email from NullRiver Support:

Thank you for your inquiry, a lot of you are wondering what's going on with NetShare

As of writing it is not available in any country on Apples AppStore

Apple is working with us at getting the program back onto the store as soon as possible.

News as it happens will be posted at our website here: http://www.nullriver.com

NetShare can be used with any device that supports SOCKS5 Proxies. This includes Mac, Windows XP, Vista, Linux and many other system and devices. Guides are being worked on to help, which will be release as soon as possible on our website.

In the meantime many people have taken the time and energy to make guides of their own to help people out, for which id like to extend our thanks.

sorry this is a dumb question, but, with NetShare, I could be in a car and hook my laptop to my cell phone and get on the Internet using my laptop?

that'd be pretty cool.

YES, it works well.

But I though this was apple and att being evvvvuuuuuuuuuulll?

Seriously though, this is great news, as today's 2.0.1 gave some of us scare, updates may someday make netshare break.

Hopefully they can come to a great conclusion.

Looking forward to it on the App Store soon. I didn't get a chance to get it when it was previously available. :(

I think its because of some carriers not liking the fact that the iPhone can take advantage of being used as a laptop modem. Especially those who offer UL data plans like AT&T and O2. Others who offer plans with fixed amounts of data (like most of them) wont be as anal about it.

This is wacky! I hope it all works out cause I missed out on netshare both times its been up!

I sure hope they bring it back. I'd even be willing to pay an extra one-time $10 into AT&T's pocket if they bring it back.

YES, it works well.

is there anyway to get it without jailbreaking your phone?

According to the email above that they just sent me, when they work out the details, it should reappear in the App Store. Let's hope so. When it does, you won't have to Jailbreak the iPhone.
