Skype Calls on My Computer connected to the internet via my mobile phone tethered by bluetooth

I’m in my hotel room and my ATT cell phone doesn’t have coverage, but I noticed I had wifi coverage.  So here is the case for Google Voice and Skype.  I found a script a while back to use my mobile phone as a modem for my computer.  My computer is connected via bluetooth to my mobile phone.  My mobile phone is connected to an ATT wifi hotspot.  My computer is accessing the internet from my phone.  Bluetooth data rates aren’t great, but it looks like I’m getting about 70K - 100K transfer speeds.  That’s enough bandwidth to use Skype on my computer.  I’ve done about three calls today and it’s working fine.  If I were dependent upon ATT mobile coverage, I’d have to leave my hotel room.  The other good part is I don’t have to pay for hotel room internet since ATT includes the wifi service with my plan.
