RIM Crippling BlackBerry Bluetooth Speed on new OS releases?
Alex King writes " I organized a bounty for the creation of a 'BlackBerry as a modem' solution for Mac OS X earlier this year. The resulting product — Pulse, from Brain Murmurs — allows you to use your BlackBerry as a standard Bluetooth modem. It works great on both Windows and Mac.

Awwwe Maaaaan! Say it ain't so!!! Although I haven't figured out how to tehter my 8703e via Bluetooth...I would hate to see any future speeds degraded!!! This wouldn't be cool at all, but I guess since you'll always have the USB as a backup...it shouldn't affect us. Except in the field of inconvenience...

Darn!
