Default Mac modem script for BlackBerry 8900?

Anyone have a script or know what script I should use to bluetooth tether my 8900 to my MacBook Pro?

Hi, I set up a Rogers 8900 Javelin on a Macbook Pro Uni-Body running 10.5.6 last week for a buddy. Used the drivers off of fibble.org for the 8800 I think it was. Speed was ok, but kind of "Bursty" (fast, wait a few seconds, fast, wait, fast etc) compared to a Bold.

Was fairly basic, but had to add an extra port to do DUN in the bluetooth settings for it on the Mac.

If you can't get it working let me know, I can log in into your machine and give you a hand.

I have the BB Bold and us the following website as a guide to setting my phone as a bluetooth tether. If you have any issues with the instructions PM me, or reply to the thread I would be happy to help you. And yes it says pearl, pick the latest BB on the list and you should have no problems.
