From what I understand both the playbook and phone will use wifi if it's available before using the carrier network.
So if your phone is connected to wifi wouldn't your playbook be also? The only thing bridge will be for in this case is for email etc. and not the browser.
BTW even if your phone has 4g you will not get 4g speeds bridging your playbook because bluetooth is limited in speed.
