the ICS BT PAN connection from the Phone works and connects, i just don't know what to do on my LAPTOP side of things, to initiate the connection.
Sorry to respond so late, and it looks like your radio doesn't support BT PAN, so this issue is most likely moot, but anyways... I use Vista and what I did was go to: start|control panel|Network and Internet|Network and Sharing Center|Manage Network Connections. Then I dragged and dropped the BT Network Connection under the PAN Heading into my quicklaunch area. Now, all I have to do is prepare my ppc for connection, then click my quicklaunch icon, wherein PAN opens up, and I click connect.

I haven't noticed a big difference in speed between BT PAN and USB ICS, myself, but YMMV.
