Very little tweaking.

- You need to install a USB compatible bluetooth adapter - all the ones
I tested at Landao worked.

- Install the BLUEZ tools and ppp tools.

- Create a DEV  node for the rfcomm bind.

- Pair the PC and the GPRS Phone and then bind that bluetooth device
with rfmon

- Create symlinks to the new rfcomm /dev device and then attach it to a
normal ppp connection and use as a normal TTY device.

Cheers,
Richard.
