I did not write this, but got from forums at
www.pdastreet.com. The settings for phones and pda's do work, have tested both. Thanks to sun_starfire at their forum!

---------------------
The Settings for the PDA :
Go to Settings/Connections
Under "When needed, automatically connect to The Internet using these
settings"
Select "New..."
Name the new service
Select the "modem" tab
Select New...
Name the Connection
Select "generic IrDA modem"
Set the Baudrate to 57600
Select [Advanced]
Enter the DNS-Servers:
DNS: 66.209.10.201
Alt DNS: 66.209.10.202
Click (OK)
Click [Next]
Enter the phone number
Country Code [1]
Area Code [your area code]
Phone number: *99***#
(in my case this is *99***2#)
Click [Next]
Enter the dial string
+cgdcont=1,"IP","isp.cingular"
Click [Finish]
Click (OK)
Select the "Dialing Locations" Tab
Click on [New]
Enter the dialing patterns.
For local calls, call:
[G ]
For long distance calls, call:
[G ]
For international calls, call:
[G ]
Click (OK)
-------------
That's it. If you now click [Connect] your PDA will connect to the
phone via IR and connect to GPRS. It's pretty fast, actually
The connect dialogue will ask once for a name and password. These are the
same as in the phone:
UserID:
WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM
Password: CINGULAR1
Hope this helps.

slight update: if you want to use gprs for dial up, use *99#g. Much more stable, but you will get killed on bytes. Otherwise, program in 18882517687, and use it as wap.
