What steps did people in this thread who've had success use to get their tablets to see the data profile on the Pearl?

I'm using a T-Mobile Pearl, with the -64 OS, and a Nokia 770 with the latest OS2006 version. The 770 is paired with the Pearl, but sees no data profile. When I try to setup the "Phone" control panel (after using the "Mobile operator setup wizard") I get the following:

Selected phone does not have services that can be used. Select another phone.

I see reports of people using the Pearl with a Nokia pad in this thread, so obviously some are getting past this point, or there is another way to hook it all up.
