Default Wireless Internet connection on Ubuntu 5.10 (Bluetooth)

ok firstly i dont know if this thread belongs here coz its a mixed question of Linux and Mobile phone,,,,
ok here's the deal i have a USB bluetooth dongle of 10mts range which came with IVT bluesoliel software and so it was not a big problem to use my phone(nokia 6630) to connection to the internet(Hutch www services), or to transfer files back and forth on Windows XP but now i have to be able to do all the same stuff on Ubuntu,,,, i tried to install NOkia PC suite & Bluesoliel on ubuntu using Crossover Office and WinE but the installation showed a error and aborted,,, so i need to know is there a bluesoliel like software for Linux or are there ne other methods i saw lots of tuts on the net on now to connect to ur phone GPRS connection using linux but none of them worked so please help me out

I know that my bluetooth device is working and is being detected properly by Ubuntu(i have blueztool bluetooth stack installed) and i was able to succesfully detect my phone by doing a hcitool scan and was able to ping it without ne problems
