Report says Samsung Omnia W to get Wi-Fi tethering with Windows Phone 7.8
If you are still holding on to your Samsung Omnia W, there is some good news today from the guys at Samsung. Apparently the word is that the Windows Phone 7.8 update will not only bring the new resizeable live tiles, the Bing lockscreen wallpaper and the twenty new color themes among other changes, it will also add Wi-Fi tethering to the phone.
According to the Korean based manufacturer, once the Windows Phone 7.8 update goes through, Samsung will add the new feature to the device. The big question, of course, is when will the Windows Phone 7.8 update be pushed out? Samsung says that it is just a matter of Microsoft flicking the switch to send out the long awaited update.
