I have a RAZR that I sync with the Address Book and iCal via Bluetooth. Here is what the device configuration says about it:
Device Name: Motorola RAZR
Device Address: *some hex digits*
Device Type: Phone
Device Services: , Voice Gateway, Hands-Free voice gateway, OBEX Object Push, OBEX File Transfer, Dial-up networking Gateway
Paired: Yes
Configured: Yes
Favorite: Yes
Connected: No
Serial Port: Yes
There is the option to connect either by some dial-up connection (which tells me it will act as a wireless modem) or directly via GPRS or 1xRTT. In either case you will need either a dial-up ISP or some data package from your provider who can hook you up with the right information.

Just to add some good news to my last response...
I configured my RAZR as a wireless modem via Cingular, and it works even without a specific data package; instead I get charged $0.01/KB using the data service "a la carte."

I'm not exactly sure how to do it, but I have heard of people doing it before. But beware, Verizon is famous for disabling cool features that the phones are capable of, so you might need to do some kind of hacking (of your phone that is).

I was able to pay for my new macbook
just by trying out products from home.
The pay is great and it's free to join.
