Hi, I'm on StarHub MaxMobile too and I'm currently using the E220 drivers from http://portal.myglobe.com.ph/portal/Suboverview.do?aid=44364&id=1724 for my E270.

It works just fine on Leopard and Tiger and I have not encountered any known problems so far.

The detailed installation guide can be found here: http://www.myglobe.com.ph/myGlobe/pdf/HuaweiInstallation_&_Configuration_for_Macv2.pdf

Hope it helps.
