It is said that one of the biggest selling points is that Verizon CDMA version iPhone has wireless personal hotspot, which allows iPhone transfer the 3G network signal into WiFi, and also allows five devices access in at the same time.

According to the report, the USA mobile operator AT&T has also started to provide the wireless personal hotspot service for some areas in few days ago, now only the AT&T iPhone users who carried the iOS 4.3 beta version can share this feature. Although AT&T has still not formally announced this wireless hotspot feature to iOS users, Apple’s latest iOS 4.3 beta version has added this feature to iPhone.

At&T said before that other smart phones would enable the wireless personal hotspot service later on February 13, and iPhone may enable it soon. Someone in China has tested this feature on iOS 4.3, and he found that the wireless personal hotspot can be successfully enabled in China Unicom’s network after iPhone upgraded to iOS 4.3 beta. However, AT& T and Verizon now have an additional monthly fee for this feature, which costs users 20 dollars. In addition, the rumors said that iOS 4.3 will be officially released at the end February.
