    you could probably bridge the network connection between the bluetooth network and the network card you use for the pcs internet.

    then enter the shared network settings into the pda with an ip address ending in a different number (if not using dhcp)

    option 3.c here http://tweaks2k2.com/How_to/bluetooth_network.htm

    try establishing an active sync connection over bluetooth and set up active sync to provide a passthrough to the active internet connection on your PC

    (you can google the keywords above and should come up with several online tutorials - also find out what bluetooth implementation you are using in your PC )
