It is possible, as OS X recognises its modem capabilities in Bluetooth preference pane. I haven't tried, as my mac mini isn't really portable, and at home we have our WiFi. I did read about an application called launch2net, which allows the easy set up of bluetooth and wired phones as modems, the K800i is listed as a supported device. Try the demo verison on their website and see if it works for you: http://www.novamedia.de/e_pages/e_produkte_mac_l2n.html Hope I have helped, Balazs To be honest, I don’t use my K800i as a modem.

Do you use it to get online via mobile broadband to surf the web etc? If so, does that go via Bluetooth or USB? And what kind of software or changes did you make to the OS to make it work. I realise this isn't a "help" website, but there is no one better to ask than power users about the capabilities of products. I am looking at getting a K800i and I want to use it as my primary modem.
