I can't imagine how this will work in ANY phone, without a driver being written for it. Its a network device and needs a driver, no matter what its hardware interface is - microSD, USB or whatever. The article talks about interest in using it with two different Windows Mobile phones, and its entirely possible that the manufacturer will ship it with a driver for Win Mobile. I haven't heard of RIM providing an interface to allow device drivers to be written, but I could be wrong as I'm not a developer. But without a device driver, this device has about the same odds of working as if you bought a readily available USB WiFi device and plugged it into the USB port on the BlackBerry.
