Is There anyway to synchronise a p900 without using it's USB connection and instead of it using a bluetooth one ? ( i mean working with PC suite with a Bluetooth connection , is there anyway ? if so , How ???)

It's all standard bluetooth setup with one exception:

For some reason, the phone must always create the connection, so if you create a connection from the PC to the phone (which you can), it onyl connects to the phone long enough to tell it to connect back to the PC. The original connection then tells you it has been closed by the remote application (which is correct), but you should now notice a new incoming connection instead.

This means that you have to configure your PC to make sure that you have a serial port running for both incoming and outgoing. Also, on the phone connection link, you should initially check all serial ports, since you won't know which one the phone will use.

The only thing you can't do with bluetooth is a backup or restore. For that you must have the desksync stand or cable.
