Sorry, but I had to clarify. In prior conversations, some people say "tether" in reference to simply hooking the BB to the PC for simple syncing. Just getting our vocabulary on the same track here!

Well, I hope you are right!

Now, I'm trying to think of a way of testing it out. I do *not* want to buy a Mac only to discover that it won't work.

I wonder if the Apple store would allow me to use one of their own computers w/ parallels and install BB desktop and testing it. I'd be surprised if it doesn't require Verizon's software, but...

When I had a Verizon Cellular modem, the salesman said: "if you have a Mac, no software is needed. If you have Windows, you'll need some extra software".

This is why I was stunned to find that blackberrys had this issue with Macs...actually, most tethered cell phones have this issue with Macs.

So cool, I'm off to investigate. Any further tips are appreciated!
