Use another Bluetooth phone as a modem
You can use another phone that has Bluetooth as a modem for your
device to browse the Internet or to transfer other information.
To do this, create a Bluetooth modem connection on your device and
then send information to the phone by using Bluetooth. The phone
relays the information over the mobile phone network and then sends
back to your device any information that you had requested over the
connection.
