I have a bb flip curve with t-mobile and would like to teather it to my laptop. I'm a rookie at this so any advice and help would be appreciated.

I teather but it can be a bit slower at times. I don't advise the tmobile aircard you might want to go to at&t or verizon depending on coverage areas for the brand you choice.

Missy - I also tether, and it is slower probably than an air card, but the directions can be found at the Blackberry site. Look for Document ID KB05196. You MUST get through all 4 tasks in order to make it work, AND you will not be able to use your phone when you are using it as a modem. It took me a while to get it correct (not following ALL the directions) but what a lifesaver when there is no other way to get conntected! Contact me directly if you need help.

I am not well versed on them. It is my understanding that they are like the iPhone you must you their software stuff. Again I don't know for sure honestly.
