You are pretty close:
On the PC:
ifconfig usb0 pointopoint 192.168.0.202
On the ipaq:
route add default gw 192.168.0.102
On the PC:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth0/proxy_arp
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/usb0/proxy_arp
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
That should get you rolling unless the cables are not working, I hope.
Good luck.
