I just got my new MacBook Pro and needed to figure out how to tether my phone to it so I can get on the internet when I travel this weekend. I ran across this article, appropriately titled “How do I use my Blackberry Pearl as a bluetooth modem with a Mac?”.

Everything is pretty simple, you just need to download the BlackBerry 8100 modem script and then setup the device as your Bluetooth modem.

Using it from the office I downloaded files in excess of 300kbps, which isn’t too shabby for a makeshift internet connection. It sure beats the hell out of dialup.
