Well, I've searched high and low on various Android forums (some good, some bad :-), and unbelievably, it just appears to be... simply *not possible*, not through USB, and not through Bluetooth !

WTF ? I must have been using Maemo for too long :-)
I'm not sure I understand, are you using mobile hotspot on the n900 for the tab to connect to it? That should work fine. If you are trying to use the n900 as a 3g modem, that is not going to work.
