I have received over 20 requests for this when I posted a blurb on my blog about how I tethered my Macintosh to my Cingular Blackjack.. After a few days of tinkering around I came up with this solution..

1. Download the Blackberry 3G Driver
   
2. Load the driver on the Macintosh.
   
3. Goto Start>Settings>Connections>USB on the Blackjack and change it to Modem
4. Connect your Blackjack to your Macintosh via USB Cable
   
5. Goto your Macintosh and select Apple>System Preferences>Network
6. It should automatically show a new connection called "SAMSUNG CDMA TECHNOLOGIES"
7. Select that connection goto TCP/IP tab and select ppp tab and enter in
   1. [email protected] <--USERNAME
   2. CINGULAR1 <---PASSWORD
   3. WAP.CINGULAR <--- TELEPHONE NUMBER[*]

In your PPP options select Send PPP echo packets and uncheck: Use TCP header compression.[*]Goto Modem Tab and select your Blackberry CID1 OR CID3[*]Uncheck redial if busy

Lock your connection and you will see a phone on the right hand side of your mac. Select the pull down menu and select connect!!!! That's it!
