I am using Windows 7 64-bit. I am stuck at the install drivers part...where do you look for MYSETUP.INF? This is not straightforward. The people writing the guide are for XP or Vista user..not Windows 7 64-bit.

Windows 7 is the same as XP and Vista. If you are running Professional or Ultimate then there is no differences at all. You can run XP mode or Vista mode without any issues. But if you have the cheapy Home premium then you must either way try run Virtual PC and do it from Linux or XP instead. This way you won't break your windows.

Be carefull, I tried this on Win 7 x64 and all was fine until I restarted my PC and it fooked up all my drivers for my USB devices and my graphics card.

That's why you don't do it without proper system restore backup state. Create a restore point and then you do it. Else you will run into a lot of problems
Things like Sixpair remind me why I still keep a linux netbook handy despite having virtual machines. Although I'm sure it'll work with the latter.
I followed the first half of the Windows guide, then used Sixpair, then added "input" back into the disabled modules in my /etc/bluetooth/main.conf, stop/start bluetooth, and everything worked. Note: it didn't work with "input" missing.
How do I turn off the controller when I'm done? Though!
yes as you said, just turn N900 bluetooth and the control will turns itself off after 5seconds.
Odd, maybe I'm just a little impatient! I found, also, that holding the PS button down for what seems like an age will turn the controller off too. Playing Secret of Mana on the bedroom TV with a PS3 controller... using a freakin' phone... is pretty amazing. Too bad it'll be utterly redundant when I get my Pandora.
It worked fine with me! My controller only fails to connect to my ps3… I’ve already put in the Bluetooth adress of the system back into the controller, but does not seems to help. Can you help me?

Pretty sure you need to pair it back with the PS3 via USB cable which would mean you will have to do the glovepie pairing every time you need to use the controller with the N900.
I have got a sixaxis with a broken L1 button which I'm using exclusively with the N900.
