I'm scratching my head until one of us achieves this.
The TiBook makes a standard PPP (modem) dial-up connection, using one of your T-Mobile cell phones. This call has to be to another cell phone on your T-Mobile family plan, to avoid any charges. That receiving cell phone is connected to the computer, as a modem. The computer has to answer PPP style.
I'm just realizing that I don't know how to answer in OS X, but there must be a way. Otherwise, the answering computer could be running MacOS 9 and answer with Remote Access.
