Bit late but for anyone else looking the emulator doesn't work on a Mac, you need to test on a physical device: http://us.blackberry.com/developers/javaappdev/macosx.jsp "Testing and Debugging

To test your application on a Mac environment, you’ll need to use a physical BlackBerry smartphone tethered to your computer and debug files that match the BlackBerry smartphone OS. Download debug files for Mac-based development tools."

You could install Windows on VirtualBox or some other virtualization tool and setup eclipse and the plugin there.
