O2, the exclusive UK carrier of the iPhone, has announced its pricing for the new iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G in the UK.
The operator has confirmed it will be offering both MMS and iPhone tethering for the launch of the new iPhone handset on the 19 June, however users will have to sign up for a tethering bolt-on pack bringing with it any hope that it will be a service available for all.
"To tether you need an Internet Tethering Bolt On: 3GB for £14.68/month, 10GB for £29.36/month. Both include The Cloud's Wi-Fi," the operator has confirmed making it an expensive option for users keen to use their iPhone as a modem for their laptop.
MMS will be covered in user's monthly contract, say O2, although it will cost the equivalent of four SMS messages to send a picture to friends or loved one.
