The computer or PDA communicates with the phone at a rather lower level
than packets.  For the phone to get to the packets, it would have to act
as a PPP server and would probably need to do a whole lot of complicated
protocol translation.  Now with a Bluetooth-supporting phone and
computer/PDA you might be in luck.
