Connect your phone to PC with bluetooth, then:

1. If phone supports browsing using PCs net connection (by sharing it over bluetooth LAN connection).

Or if phone does not have this feature

2. Install some transparent proxy on PC, it will enable HTC to browse net / sync emails

Get a bluetooth dongle for PC and you can go online using bluetooth and internet connection through PC, it works

BUT as Steer said why do you want to do that?

Option a) Bluetooth Dongle with PC ON = 200 Rs
Option b) Wireless Router = 1250 to 2500 depending on make and model

Does Airtel offers unlimited usage plan for Mobile Office ? Afaik Vodafone has no unlimited option.
What is Mail for exchange ? What is the usage of it ?

Check out :: Airtel :: Postpaid Mobile - Tariffs.
and click on services. Three tariff available. I think you will have to call up CS to find out the differences in the options.

Airtel does offer Mobile Office Unlimited Package at Rs. 249 a month. You can also get a daily package for Rs.15 per day. I have been using the monthly unlimited package for over a month now.

You can have the same package for Rs.1,500 per year. Thats very cheap for an unlimited package.

Airtel packages vary according to which circle you are subscribed to.
Some of the tempting prices quoted are not always available in other circles.
