Tech tip for Aussie iPhone in USA

To use your iPhone with decent data speeds, go to AT&T, ask for a prepaid gophone microsim. They'll say "doesn't work with iPhone" tell them you want one anyway and don't take no for an answer. Pay $25 for voice and text (doesn't cover calls to Australia - they are extra) and $25 for 1GB data. Find some free wifi, click to register the SIM, then go to www.unlockit.co.nz and choose the AT&T APN settings.
That's it. 4G working nicely on my iPhone 4S, but no ability to create a hotspot (yet).
