How do I get internet using my blackberry as a modem? My husband is traveling to his parents' house in rural Kansas and they don't have internet. Is there a way to use his blackberry as a modem with our laptop?

Yes, which service provider do you use? Unfortunately what you're looking for is known as Tethering and it is a paid service with most SPs. I use verizon wireless and i believe its an extra $10 a month for it.
