Wobo,
On the desktop
Put "usb0" back to 192.168.1.1 as it needs to be on a separate subnet.
Restart the network. You should now have both eth0 and usb0.
Set the pda up to use;
192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.255 gateway 192.168.1.1
Back on the desktop;
"route add -host 192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev usb0"
