bb-curve as modem
While I was stuck in the airport in Houston a few weeks ago, I got an email from my friend Eloy about tethering my MacBook Pro to my Blackberry Curve. He saw I was stuck without an Internet Connection and felt bad for me. He knew this because I was photo blogging via Flickr.
Well, a few weeks later I am going through email and ran into his….So, I gave it a shot…and what do you know…..it worked.
So, if you have a Blackberry Curve or Pearl, and want to use it as a modem with your Mac this is the blog post for you. [link]

Now if OKC would just get BroadbandConnect instead of the slowwwwww EDGE network… I guess something’s better than nothing.

You are right….the Edge network has improved…and I am guessing it is just going to keep getting better.

While at the Buzz conference this past week, one of my co-workers was using his plain old Verizon phone plugged in as a modem for his Mac. He said it uses his regular minutes, but man, that would be so useful when traveling. (Also addicting!) I’m going to check with him about getting my laptop set up in case I ever needed to use that feature. Maybe this is old news, but I was pretty impressed!
