I posted this before but didn't really relay what I was looking for....
I have a Blackberry 7520 through Nextel. I would like to be able to use the
phone as a modem with my laptop. So if I'm out on the road, I can plug my
Blackberry into my laptop and access the Internet through the Blackberry.
A friend of mine does this through his Cinglular phone but so far, I have
not found anything about it online. I did however find this:
http://www.mobishark.com/ but I'm a little skeptical that I really need
special software???
Any ideas?

I would call Nextel Customer Service and ask them where to download
the software and to get the cable. They may send you to Motorola. I
used my i88s and now my i860 as a wireless modem on an old notebook
with 98 SE and now on my new notebook with XP. It's a little slow
but it works. The USB cable won't work with Win 98 original but
does on the later versions.
I got the USB cable with the charging port so I can use the AC
adapter at the same time I'm online.
The Blackberry setup may be different.
