Just goes to show you that you shouldn't do as I did!
My Sprint EX-720 was peachy keen on my MacBook Pro Penryn,
working under Sprint's Mac s/w..

Just got my new MacBook Pro 15", slid my EX-720 into the slot
started Sprint Smart View, it located the card, BUT.. Smart View
would NOT launch... tried all sorts of things, finally called tech support here
and wouldn't you know, but they have had more thank just my call on this
problem... I kind of wish that once you all discovered this incompatibility, you would have put up a note about it, so we didn't go driving ourselves kaka, but maybe you did and I missed it...

I SHOULD add that the card DOES work fine with the built in mac software in the network control panel; in there , it connects just fine, but ng with
Sprint Smart View s/w....

kind of like we've taken a few steps back to the days prior to smartview coming to market.... byt hey, at least it still works!

First of all, glad that you have things up and running.

We do not post *everything* that we know up here on EVDOforums (as many of our competitors are up here and we don't want to help them). So, you didn't miss anything - glad that you called us and got it working.
