1. ActiveSync via BT is problematic, as ActiveSync was never designed
with BT in mind, so you have to set it up as a COM port on your desktop
computer, and then set it up on your device (instructions vary
depending on the device, and I don't own an e330, so I can't help you
with device-specific instructions). Here are instructions for the iPAQ:

2. I've never used BT for PAN, sorry.
