I've only seen video demonstrations of internet video playback through a wifi connection.
Honestly, I think the best answer is: it depends...on the speed of your "bluetooth cell internet connection". If you're not using a hi-speed connection (3G, LTE, whatever), I would definitely say "no". Even if you are using a 3G phone, it still depends on lots of things like connection speeds, which vary wildly if you are moving, switching from tower to tower. How many other 3G phones are using the same tower(s). And so forth.

can anyone tell me if the n810 will run these sites well over bluetooth:
listen.grooveshark.com
picnik.com
pandora.com
Personally, I've only tried pandora.com with my N800. The flash was painfully slow. I would say unusable. For streaming music, I use Vagalume and stream from last.fm. I've streamed while tethered to my LG Shine (3G) and driving to work. Occasional stutters, but listenable overall.
