Teathering in iPhone 3.0?

Update: A walkthorugh on enabling free tethering for your 3.0 iPhone is now available here.

It seems that a developer has managed to enable native tethering on his 3.0 firmware iPhone.

Further than this, a walkthrough has been posted, and users are reporting success.

It goes without saying that this is a pretty risky thing to be doing at the moment (you cannot downgrade from 3.0 software because it irreversably changes your radio firmware), but if you’re feeling brave and want that functionality then this could be a solution. I would expect this to be available in an official way once Apple have sorted out the details with carriers (in fact they as good as confirmed this in their announcement event the other day).
