It will be an A6 Quad Core when its time, around March for the iPad3. The A5 crushed the Nvidia Tegra 2 and Tegra 3 is just a demo ... not a live product for the consumers.

Open source project brings Android apps to iOS with 'Hello world' panache (video)
Ever think you'd see Android applications executing natively within iOS? A project called "in-the-box" is working toward this goal, and it's hoping to provide developers an easy path for submitting their software to the App Store. This means Apple users could get a crack at exotic titles from Google's turf, all without jailbreaking their devices. The magic is performed by porting the Dalvik virtual machine and Gingerbread API's to iOS, which developers must bundle inside their applications -- something that's already resulted in a Java-based "Hello world" app (see it in action after the break). It's an early demonstration, as the only evidence is the output to a console window, but if you're an Android dev that's looking to rock the boat (and willing to risk App Store denial), this could be a fine path to explore
(Apple will never allow this to hit the appstore.)

Question:
Do you know if my service provider can verify if I am tethering or not?
I think thats why they are ting on me. I just got off the phone with a supervisor and she said I can use as MUCH data as I want through my mobile browser.
I guess its only when I start tethering is when the hits the fan...

From the sounds of it; you're using a unofficial carrier for the IP4 and most likely using one of those UMB plans with an APN configuration. Since you did the something on AT&T, when you were with them previously.
Unlimited Data plans are built for smartphones and they're softcapped at 5-6GB; anything past this limit, they will warn you, then they have the right (since it's stated with many carriers) to throttle your speed until the next billing period. That's why most carriers would just state their limit to avoid nonsense.
UMB are plans made for QMDs, they use barely any data and the phones are formatted for sites that are WAP enabled. Plus their hardware and screen size are not able to produce the full web experiences. They do use the same type of data as every other phone out there, it's all about the APN gateway to gain access.
Using the method of UMB plans on smartphones have been around for ages and everyone does it, but it's different method of usage to avoid getting detected. You have to be very careful and try not to abuse data, since in this case we have an IP4 as the prime suspect. The IP4 uses the most data out of every manufacture out there. Your unofficial carrier detected the insane amount of data transmitting from your "phone" that is not possible for a QMD. Also tethering on the IP4 is even more insane, especially if the data is being redirected to a computer. AT&T will be using this detection for their unofficial tethering plans that are being abused on all phones.
This UMB APN method has been going on for ages with Rogers and they've found away to detect it live, cut the service and redirect you to suitable data plan.
Also, since you're so secretive with your carrier ... it wasn't so wise to allow the CSR to access to your Facebook network as a "friend'. There are tons of pics of your jailbroken IP4, with the carrier name changed and physically "blocked" within the picture. Maybe she'll be the one to report you, instead of your other so called friends :p
Answered on May 17 2011 when you first asked; it's both types of usges a QMD normally doesn't that much data.
PC mobile is now catching on with ppl abusing this method.

Federal Government is Increasingly Replacing BlackBerrys With iPhones
The Federal Government is increasingly replacing BlackBerrys with iPhones, Microsoft Outlook with Gmail, and laptops with iPads, according to a Washington Post report.
Officials reportedly say the shift will increase productivity while slashing billions from the $80 billion spent annually on information technology.
"The demand we are seeing now in the last 90 days has been just extraordinary," said Tim Hoechst, chief technology officer at Agilex Technologies, a company that's helping federal agencies integrate Apple devices into their workforce. "It's like everybody is saying, 'This is really happening here now.'"
Kundra, the U.S. top information officer, told the Washington Post that, "The line between work and home in terms of technology is beginning to blur." When asked what employees think of current corporate technology, Kundra says, "It's not a question of whether they don't like it. They despise it."
Bringing consumer technology into the corporate world has its challenges. One of the biggest concerns for especially for government is security. Rep. Darrell Issa recently voiced his concern about iPad use to White House officials: "So people carry a product which circumvents your entire system by going to the AT&T network on a daily basis in the White House, isn’t that true?" The White House official was forced to admit that is the case.
Earlier this year it was reported that Apple hired Naval Security Expert David Rice to be its Director of Global Security. Rice is expected to help Apple improve the security of its devices for corporate and government use.

^^^ that's good to hear. Would be nice if they and other orgs started switching from MS Office to OpenOffice. Practically the same thing except free...

Thanks for re answering. I guess I missed it last time you posted it.
IDK if my service provider knows or they are just calling my bluff. I spoke to customer support (a supervisor) and she was acting like they knew I was tethering when I have never brought it up.
At add, I really don't use that much data. Maybe like 2gigs a month nothing super excessive.
What do you think, they know or they don't know?
E2EK1EL
Of course they know, their network doesn't have a phone that eats up that much data.
We all think we don't use a lot of data on the iPhones until we see our bills that show our data usages.
Just get a data counting app and see for yourself.

Nope, I just use the Rogers app to keep track of VP, DATA and SMS usage.
