New mobile phone, new toy, new headache...

My company decided to move to other cellular company. They have replaced all our phones. When they ask what kind of phone I'd like to have. I sad I did not care as long it will have a BT (Bluetooth) and a GPRS. I just wanted to connect my IPaq 5450 and my laptop to the internet. Guess what, BT is great, I synchronized the phone contacts with the IPaq and through the IPaq 802.11 I synchronized my desktop also as well as my laptop. The problems started when I tried to use the GPRS. I have searched the Internet, talked with the helpdesk at Orange, tried everything, and what I get is BT connected, Disconnected and an unknown error message in the IPaq that suggest me to Reboot the machine. After a day of trying I realized that there are three kinds of people in the world:
1. People like me that will do everything to make the technology work. They will search the Internet, They will try any settings, for example, they will not install Windows again, but will find how to fix the problem (even if it'll take more time then reinstalling)
2. Those that don't care about great new technology or they give up and save them self the headache.
3. Those that do want the new features and they in position to ask someone else (or they don't care to spend the money) to setup every thing for them.

And then I realized that all those company managers, owners and other very rich people are from the third group, and this is why we have to spend days and nights to make some new piece of technology in the right setup.
So, it someone can tell me how to set a BT GPRS between Nokia 6310i and IPaq 5450 PPC 2003, I will very appreciate it.
Thanks
Alon.
