Am considering having this mobile option but would appreciate to know if
it works on mac's or do i have to spend the rest of the weekend trying
to figure this out.

Yeah i am on 10.6 (snow leopard) works good for me. you need to get the updated mobile connect. I use the huawei ec226 .

the huawei update software is here ---

download and run the first 2 softwares -- the first updates your modem and the second installs an updated 'mobile connect' software on your mac.

connect the modem to your mac

run the 1st software from that link -- it will prompt you for a location -- point it to the volume where the modem is mounted.

use the mobile connect from the 2nd link.
