Me to, I have the 8703e with sprint. I keep hoping someone other than Pulse will hack
something together. I can't make pulse work any faster than about 56K. On Windows using
the Sprint tools, I get full EVDO speed. What gives? Pulse has claimed the slow speeds are
a problem with OSX and should be fixed in an upcoming release. But by the time Apple
finally gets around to releasing 10.5 my lonely 8703e will probably be obsolete.

I mean Sprint should be the ones to port their own interface to Mac but don't seem
interested. Other 3rd party developers have figured out the interface on windows, and
PocketMac and MarkSpace both have Mac IO drivers but without tethering. Heck
PocketMac even has RIM's blessing. What is the big mystery?
