Answer 1

Not possible!;

Answer 2

Nope, the data transfer rate of an ordinary 2G mobile phone is much less than what you would expect to be 'broadband' speed. It is possible to download data through a mobile phone onto a computer, but it will be very slow, and on PAYG, probably very expensive.

Answer 3

PAYG might not work for broadband; you'd have to check with T. They're more likely to include it with a contract BUT if it's anything like Vodafone, you pay approximately 10x the price doing it with your phone. 3G data transfer with a plug-in Voda card (PCMCIA) costs one tenth of what it does on a Voda handset.

Anyway, bluetooth from your PC to your phone is the normal way. Some handsets have USB cables which are a tad more reliable. But it took me ages to make my Nokia 6280 do that properly. Much easier, as well as cheaper, with the little card.
