Samsung Omnia II not compatible with Verizon Access Manager for Windows 7

I just purchased the Omni II. When I tried to install VAM so I could use the device as a modem the drivers didn't install correctly. Turns out that VAM doesn't support Windows 7. It seems strange to me that they could be selling a MS phone that doesn't support W7. No word on when this will be resolved. Any suggestions on how to get my phone set up as a modem in the mean time would be appreciated.

Try these steps below to use to set your Omnia up as a modem:

Install samsung cdma modem xp to your pc. then on your phone, there's a file in the \windows directory called data connection.exe. Make a shortcut for this. When you launch the file, it will give you an 2 options. 1. USB-PDA and 2. USB-PHONE. Choose phone and connect it to your laptop, it will detect the phone as a samsung cdma usb composite device. When you go to control panel in your pc, the samsung modem will be listed there
