I'm using USB cable to do that, using 3g modem with BT drains a lot of power
from the battery.
But I'm guessing that you will have to do that:

1. hcitool scan - to find your cellular Mac address
2. sdptool browse Mac_Address - check the Dialup Networking for "channel
number"
3. sudo gedit /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf
create a new BT object:
rfcomm0 {
           bind yes;           device MAC_ADDRESS;
           channel CHANNEL;
           comment "nokia ppp";
}

well, thats the first steps, than you should try to connect to your nokia, I
think you should select "pc Suite" in order to connect to the Internet.
That's what I did with 8.04 : http://n2b.org/archives/859
