I'm in dial-up land, so my option now is to use a cell phone (alltel+ razr) to connect to the internet-I saw a demo today at the dealer and he was getting 575 KB download, way better than my 37kb on dial-up.
Okay, so if I do this, how to I rig up my macbook and my imac (ppc) wirelessly so both machines can get online? The cell phone gets connected via USB into one machine to get online, but is there a way to get both on via airport extreme base station?

You don't even need a base station... just enable internet sharing on the wireless interface.
