It is very easy to use. What you need to do is to set up your bluetooth phone following the steps in this post. After that, your phone should be detected by BluePhoneElite. I have tested it with both my Motorola E398 and V360. Both of these phones work very well with this software.

BluePhoneElite is a shareware. The trial copy can only be used for 10 days. You need to register if you want to continue to use it after 10 days. I know a trick which can reset the day count, so you can continue to use the trial copy. However, I think it is not good to disclose this trick to the public.

Google "BluePhoneElite" to find more details and download.
