Title: Iridium to MacBook
#1
I have an Iridium and MacBook; currently with 10.4. After searching these forums will use XGate for weather and emails across the top of Australia. My question; what connects the Iridium to the MacBook?

Do make sure to contact GMN to make sure your specific Iridium phone is Mac OS X compatible.
