Hi all



A friend mentioned he was going to buy an ipad. I suggested the wifi only model, using the money saved on 3g to get a bigger drive.



Is it possible to use Bluetooth DUN on an ipad 2 or do you have to use ICS on a wifi enabled phone?



Tnx

    I believe you can, just share the internet connection and connect it via bluetooth. It might not work fully, but other than wifi it is the only thing I can think of.


     


    This article is for Mac to iPad, but it might help

    The iPad2  lets you tether, but requires a Bluetooth connection, rather than using Wi-Fi. And it doesn't work with the low-end iPad
