Sprint 7130 BlackBerry working as EV-DO modem!
I bought a Sprint 7130 BlackBerry today and I now have it working as an EV-DO modem within Parallels!
I'm using the Beta Update, and this didn't work for me in the GA release.
When I first installed the Beta Update, I re-tested the USB functionality using a T-Mobile 7100. With the Beta Update I was able to use that BlackBerry as a modem, but due to the phone's limitations it was slow. But it encouraged me to buy the 7130.
For others that are trying this, hear are some more details:
It took me several attempts to get this working. Finally, I installed an older version of the BB Desktop Manager. The file that I installed from was called 40119dt.exe.
