Apple Posts iOS 4.2.6 Firmware for Verizon iPhone

Apple today posted iOS 4.2.6 for the Verizon iPhone (iPhone3,3) to its site, preparing the way for users who will be receiving the phone in the next few weeks. The version checks in as Build 8E200.
The Verizon iPhone carried iOS 4.2.5 when it was demoed at the media event introducing the device earlier this month, so it appears that Apple has made some additional tweaks since that time.

Can't wait for the Mobile Hotspot. Enough with that MyWi crap.
So you're willing to pay 45 dollars a month for 2 GB of data and tethering? I won't switch to AT&T tethering until they offer a bucket with it.

Looking at the pic, I'm glad Apple got rid of that 1X EV thing that was on most Verizon phones and made some real bars lol
Never understood how to read the network strength on most Verizon phones.
Man I'm feeling that retina display right from the pic.

That lets the phone do simultaneous voice and data or work in exotic locales such as Europe?

the 2gb cap is on the tethering only, the $30 of unlimited data is still unlimited when browsing on the iPhone

TetherMe will enable native tethering on any plan, thus this doesn't apply (with a Jailbroken device). With the addition of Hotspot, this means free access to that. The TetherMe devs have this already working. Can't wait for WPA2 wifi access!
