I ordered an awesome digital camera used that is coming with the owner's 2-gig wi-fi memory stick. After reading up, I learned the memory stick will allow me to connect to a wi-fi router on my computer network in order to share the pictures.

I won't have a computer very soon, all I will own is my N800 and the camera, etc.... so I am wondering something strange: does anyone know of any software that makes the N800 BECOME a Wi-Fi router of its own? That other devices can LOG into? If my camera cannot locate a wifi-router to log into, it won't send the pictures.

This isn't really a big deal if not because I can simply swap the SD sticks around between devices if I want to, but I'm curious because then I could just beam the pictures I actually like from the camera to my N800 without having to swap cards around like crazy every day, and then just format the card and start fresh again.

Also, alternative applications of this would be if someone were paired to a cellphone from the N800 which was running this Wi-Fi hub software, then anyone with a wi-fi device could log into the N800 and use the cellphone's connection to the internet. Imagine the potential!

Like I said, if there isn't anything like that, no worries, I'll make due, but if there was, why not use it?

Thanks for your help!

Later.
