Tether N900 *to* a Cell Phone via BT?
 
Hi, I'm sorry if this has already been answered before; however all of my searching only turns up results for how to tether other devices to the N900 to use the N900 as an Internet modem. What I want to do is to use my cell phone as a modem for my N900 in the same way I did for my N810. I have a Verizon phone with BT 2.0 and an unlimited data plan. I really like my Verizon service and plan and don't want to give it up.

Previously, I had tethered my N810 via DUN over BT to my cell phone, and it was straightforward to set up. I've checked out the DUN over BT package; however, this seems to work in the other direction from what I want.

I've set up PPP on Linux for my laptops to use my cell phone as a modem, so if something similar is available for Maemo, I could probably work with that.
