How to connect to your internet DSL connection through Bluetooth on your P800:
1) Download this Java browser and install it on your P800 http://www.reqwireless.com/webviewer.html
2) Set up your bluetooth connection on your PC and P800. Make sure that the bluetooth icon on your P800 shows that you're connected.
3) Open the reqwireless WebViewer while you're connected to bluetooth and VOILA, off you go surfing the web for free. Normally when you use the WebViewer you should see a GPRS icon at the bottom of your phone, but now you don't, which means you're surfing the web through bluetooth and your PC's internet connection! 
Try this little trick out folks, and let me know if it works for you too!
I tried this trick with the built in browser in the P800 as well, but it connected me to GPRS no matter what. You need the browser to accept a dummy-access point to make this work(which the Java browser does), but my P800 browser recognises my operators GPRS settings every time it seems. But I'll keep trying and let you all know if I figure a way around this!
Cheers
Raven

the best way to test it: a simcard which doesn't support GPRS? |

Very nice. This is what I needed this for testing pages for the P800. Started to be expensive using GPRS...
