If you see that again, post the link. I`d like to see what you
were looking at.
If your phone supports Bluetooth, you can probably use that to
provide your signal to your pc. Your pc just needs to support
bluetooth too. If you are afraid of using wifi at the phone,
you can probably select Bluetooth-tethering when you enable the
phone`s mobile hotspot feature.

But that`s differnet. The phone is merely supplying the regular
audio output/in over bluetooth to the earpiece/mike.
