I was never able to get that to work (not saying it isn't possible), but it *looks* like the N800's enhanced features make it possible. I just haven't tested that yet. I hope it does, because I'd like for both of my kids to be able to get their N800s online at the same time through my phone-- right now only one at a time can.

FYI: Only one instance of each Bluetooth service/profile can be active between two devices. However, you can have two different BT services active simultaneously with two different devices. Example: N770 can talk to a GPS receiver (serial port) and to a cell-phone (dial-up-networking) at the same time, but you can not have the GPS receiver talk to call-phone (serial port) and N770 (serial port).
Hope this helps!

I suppose you could establish an adhoc connection over wifi between 2 internet tablets.
And then share your internet connection : that's the thoughest part ... I suppose you'll have to install iptables And enable IP forwarding ...
Not trivial ...

OK, my goal is not to share internet but play some network games (like bomberman, Pengupop and Crimson Fields) with 2 n770.

I think that's the reason why doom creates an ad-hoc connection !
