Using bluetooth to get Internet access through a cell phone

I have a cell phone that supports various ways of getting Internet
access (GPRS and UMTS).  Both the phone and my laptop support bluetooth.

How do I tell the laptop to use the phone to get Inetrnet access?  I
assume that it involves something like ppp over virtual com port over
bluetooth, but I find NetBSD's bluetooth-related man pages to be very
short on useful examples.
