htc- developing new application for wifi hotspot

[TheForce]

HTC Corporation is reportedly working on new software for its Windows Mobile smartphones that allows them to work as WiFi routers. Apple iPhone users currently enjoy this tethering feature, and this could be another win for the powerhouse company.

Currently HTC users can use Internet Sharing when connected to a PC or notebook via a Bluetooth connection or USB cable. While using a USB cable will always be an option, a faster connection will be needed to keep up with today’s HSDPA and HSUPA protocols.

Though in the early stages, the application from HTC, which is called “Mobile Wi-Fi Router”, could be available for future firmware updates. It is unclear at this point which phones will come with this feature, or which carrier would allow tethering devices.

Does anyone have an update to this application?

HTC already has a wifi router app out there for winmo, so this must be an updated more robust version.

Yep, it's been out for several months. But of course I give credit to WMWifiRouter as it has been out for quite a while, and was even free for the first bit.
