So long NetShare, we hardly knew you. It seems that despite some hope, Nullriver’s NetShare app will not be making its return to the App Store, and those who managed to grab it on those two brief appearances will end up having the only available copies.

Nullriver working with Apple to reinstate NetShare in the App Store

NetShare, the wonderful tethering app that has made two very brief appearances in the App Store may hopefully soon be making its return.

AT&T to have exclusive rights to the iPhone until 2010?

It looks like some bad news for anyone still holding out hope for seeing the iPhone become officially available with a carrier other than AT&T.

Nullriver’s NetShare tethering app has come and gone twice; Will we see it again?

NetShare, the app that lots of people had been waiting for has now pulled not one, but two disappearing acts from the App Store. Both times it showed up, it was retailing for $9.99, the first time it managed to stay in the store for about an hour, and the second time it was roughly [...]
