Question Bluetooth Passthrough

Currently my network is configured like so... (see bottom)

I will be getting 2 Bluetooth Class 2 USB dongles shortly, and a Bluetooth CF card for my PDA. Now what I am wondering is, if it is possible to gain access to the internet from the PDA, as it would actually have to run through one of the other PC's to do it...

Would setting the PDA to use one of the machines as the default gateway work? (Essentially forwarding the forwarded packets....) or not?

Just not sure about the best way to go about this.....

Irrelevant, but it is a Toshiba e740 (PocketPC 2002).
Getting to use the internet from another machine isn't a problem, but the other Bluetooth machines do not have direct internet access, as they go through the router...

This may just work straight off the bat, but I am just trying to pre-empt problems....
