well, that the other way around, i.e. you use your _pc_ as a gateway
and treo is using your _pc_ internet connection. the question was (or
at least the way i understood it) how to connect laptop to the
internet using treo as wireless modem. i.e. _treo_ is a gateway and it
uses 1xrtt connection on cdma network.

here is the link to the article that discusses such setup with
linux/pppd for both gsm (t-mobile) and cdma (verizon) providers. all
examples are for pppd but can be easily adopted for ppp(8).
