How to Use Your BlackBerry 8700 as a Bluetooth Modem in OS X

Congratulations and thanks to Daniel Pasco, who has created a fantastic solution for using the BlackBerry 870* series as a Bluetooth modem in Mac OS X.
I’ve just tested a development build that allowed me to browse the web and download mail. Awesome! Daniel claims the bounty.
Daniel is hard at work polishing it up and quashing the little quirks that exist in the early dev stages of any product, but it already has been tested and works with the 8700g (T-Mobile) and the 8703e (Sprint and Verizon).
Hopefully a version will be available for testing to all of the bounty contributors soon. More details as I have them.
Again, thanks and congrats to Daniel. He’s worked his tail off on this. Great job!

This is the best part about the blackberry community. Making things happen even when RIM isn't.
Thanks Daniel!

Hello everyone I am a newbie here and this will be my first post.

This is fantastic! I have been patiently waiting for someone to figure this problem out. I have tried different things but could not get close to solving this issue.

So where can I get the app to set this up on my Mac?

Much help will be appreciated.
