I would call Nextel Customer Service and ask them where to download
the software and to get the cable. They may send you to Motorola. I
used my i88s and now my i860 as a wireless modem on an old notebook
with 98 SE and now on my new notebook with XP. It's a little slow
but it works. The USB cable won't work with Win 98 original but
does on the later versions.

I got the USB cable with the charging port so I can use the AC
adapter at the same time I'm online.

The Blackberry setup may be different.
