I'm a bit late responding to this and you probably have your answer already, but yes, you can use mac with bluetooth to set your 650 up as an external modem. Works well.

I don't know any other way but Bluetooth.

Anthea-

You need to read all of the threads before responding. There was an answer way back in the 4th post on this thread.

I believe this is the script you are talking about. You will need to take the "txt" part off of it.

1_VZW_Generic_1X_ON_230400 (you can find that here)
is this something you type in or is it a script that has to be installed/
if installed where to find it?

Just don't use it on Mt. Waialeale. You'll get your phone all wet.

Treo. :rolleyes:
This is the first time I am trying to use this and I am not sure if I am doing it correctly. Well, here it goes: I have tryied the step by step instructions to connect my MAC (OS10.4.2) to my treo using bluetooth and I coulld not connect. Obvioulsy I am doing something wrong. The only difference that I see is that I could not find the Modem Script: 1_VZW_Generic_1X_ON_230400 (you can find that here)

in step 2f and I was given three other choices:
Verizon 1xQNC Modem Script
Verizon 1xRTT Modem Script
Verizon Support (PC 5220)

I tried all of them and none worked (so far). I also noticed that I cannot sync my entourage with the treo anymore through the cable (it was working before). ANy comments?!



I will quote this as it's not from me...credit where credit is due.. thanks to mithras at TC.




Your mileage may vary. Share your results - I'd be interested to hear how you make out.[/quote]

Look in the Modem Scripts folder.

I swear a lot of you guys give up way too easily. You all need to read more and search Google. It's not so hard. When you go down a wrong path, back up and try something different.
