Oh boy you should have seen their faces light up. They couldnt believe that the N900 aloowed then to do facetime on their iPhones when their iPhones didnt allow them (over 3G).

So its a simple Wifi network that is created - so any device with a wifi should be able to jump on on it (theoritically).
Instead, unfortunately, the Tab doesn't see the mobilehotspot wifi cloud when scanning for available networks. It's the same problem I found when testing with a much more primitive Chinese tablet with android 1.6.
My Nokia E51 phone, instead, sees the mobilehotspot network and uses it jolly good for browsing the 'net.
