This was absurdly simple in execution. After following the instructions and lastly modifying the iptables, I restarted the phone. It came back up, I made sure bluetooth was on, then added a new Bluetooth device on my Mac. The Pre was found, and a new PAN (Personal Area Network) was established. I turned off the WiFi on my laptop, and connected to the PAN (click the Bluetooth icon in your menu bar, then click the Pre). Flawless. I had the Pre connected to my wireless network, so I don't know how quick it'll be using EVDO, (and at the risk of offending some of the more Neanderthal among us) it's so simple a caveman could do it.
Thanks again.
Update
(again): I tried using EvDo. It works, but it's molasses slow. I'm guessing part of this may be because I'm connecting via Bluetooth. How would I connect via USB instead?
