Setting up Orange UK GPRS with a SonyEricsson K700i over Bluetooth on OS X

A fairly specific requirement I’ll grant you but thought I would document it all the same. This is the first thing I have come across for the PowerBook that is not straight forward, and the phone company don’t offer much help, so after much internet scouring here are a couple of links.

The latter link is excellent. First download the GPRS scripts and then follow the instructions exactly. For my specific combination (K700i, Powerbook 17″, OS X 10.3.5, Orange UK, Bluetooth) the script which worked was Sony Ericsson GPRS CID4. If it proves useful then tip Ross Barkman for his hard work, because noone else seems to have worked this stuff out (mobile phone networks included for some reason).
