Apple's MacBooks may look real good, but owners lament its incompatibility with many mobile broadband solutions. The few ExpressCard data cards out there don't have Mac drivers. And lugging around a separate USB modem goes against the whole point of owning a laptop.

But here's a really simple solution, thanks to Palm's latest Windows Mobile smartphone. This only applies to proud owners of a 750v. I'll let Mobility Today do the rest:

Download this driver

Unzip the file, dump the contents into your modem [scripts] directory:

Macintosh HD > Library > Modem Scripts. [or for propriety's sake "Macintosh HD:Library:Modem Scripts"]

Then pair the 750v and [Mac]. Follow the options, when you get to choosing the modem for internet [dialing], choose the file you've just dumped into Modem Scripts and then complete the setup wizard.

[That's] it and even with the HSDPA hack it all works like a charm!
