When looking at a phone's specs on this web site. How can I know if a phone is capable of tethering. I have a Blackberry Pearl (AT&T) and both a Mac Book (black) and a Dell Latitude D820. Trying to set up the MacBook to use the Blackberry as a wireless modem is a pain!!

Anymore I believe most phones can be tethered as a modem to a laptop. I know Blackberrys are a pain in the but to set up on windows. Not sure about Mac. Take it into a Mac store and they could probably do it.
