Blackberry 7230 as GPRS Modem on Computer

Posted by: coold8

Hi, I just purchased a Blackberry 7230 to replace my V600. On my V600 I used to connect my laptop to the internet through BT and Cingular GPRS. I am now switching to T-Mobile, and the Blackberry 7230, with their Unlimited Data Plan. Now the question is, how do I use the GPRS to go online through my Laptop again? Is it possible with the USB Cable? Is there something else I have to buy? Thanks in advance.

it might be possible as it is with 4.0 7100's and 4.0 7290's (there may be a slight modem hardware difference though), search for "using a blackberry as a modem for laptop" in this thread. You'll definatly need to upgrade the software on your 7230 to version 4.0 though (http://www.t-mobile.com/bbupgrade)
