I'm using SE M600i with latest firmware and Billionton bluetooth dongle for this purpose.
Step 1 - PC Setup:
1. Install bluetooth dongle (Dongle with 'Personal Area Network' support).
2. Configure "Network Access" with the option "Allow other devices to access Internet/LAN via this computer" enabled.
3. Now enable the "Network Access" service. This should create a IP to your PC under "Ethernet adapter Bluetooth Network".
4. Run "ipconfig" to get the IP address of the PC for BT network.
5. Share the internet connection of your PC.
Step 2 - Install any proxy server software on the PC and configure. Note down the proxy port.
Step 3 - Pair the PC and Mobile
Step 4 - Setup Mobile.
1. Create new internet connection of type BT Internet (PAN).
2. Select your PC as the bluetooth device.
3. Specify the proxy as the IP of the PC and the proxy port noted above.
4. Create a new Internet group and include the connection created above.
5. Launch web browser and use the internet group created above to connect to internet.
This worked for me. You may have to tune above steps in some cases.
I'll try to do more detailed guide, if I get some free time.
Good luck.

Is this turly works????
I have tried varies of method early which claimed working, but I discovered one of those method does not work as it require adding the existing default Ad-Hoc Bluetooth PAN into a new interenet group in the Internet accounts setting page where old firmwares do allow this action but not any up to date firmware.
I am not at home now so I could not try, but really hope this is the proper solution to BT internet!
Cheers!

Believe me, this is working perfectly. At the moment my proxy server doesn't allow wap sites, but all the http sites are connecting fine. I should work on that.
As I said I'll publish a more detailed guide when I get some free time.
