    First, let me say that I have read previous threads about this but couldn't find an answer (I don't want anyone yelling at me to read other threads...haha).

    Anyway, I am trying to use the storm as a modem but my internet isn't connecting. I put +CGDCONT=1,"IP","internet" as the APN for Verizon. Is this correct or is this for other services? Thanks for the help.

    there is software from verizon you have to use and pay for ( or course )... because even with an unlimited data plan somehow the data you use when in modem mode is somehow mysteriously different from the data used on your unlimited data plan... f verizon

    That is crazy that they charge. I just switched from T-mobile to Verizon, and I didn't have to pay for anything extra. Do you know how much they charge?

    It wall depends on what Data plan you have for your BlackBerry. If you have the $29.99 data plan, thethering is $29.99. If you have the $44.99 data plan, thethering is $14.99. So either way they are making the same amount of money off of you.
