Connect USB bluetooth dongle to the laptop and check it:
$ hciconfig

Create a serial device for communicating with the modem in the phone:
$ rfcomm connect /dev/rfcomm0 00:19:79:86:EB:BC 3
Connected /dev/rfcomm0 to 00:19:79:86:EB:BC on channel 3
Press CTRL-C for hangup
(A dialog will popup on the phone asking me to allow the laptop to connect.)
Connect using wvdial:
$ wvdial
