3g with t-mobile
I use it regularly with my laptop using BT DUN. I was hoping it would be just as easy with these honeycomb tablets.

So, consider yourself lucky to have gotten a honeycomb, otherwise you might have to root yours like others.

Back to your issue, the script is enabling your N900 to supply Internet to PAN peers. So at least you must have an Internet connection on N900 before your peers could make use of it.
I just re-check the script and it should prompt you for Internet connection first. Was it failed to connect to Internet on N900? Please check by browsing with your N900.

I tried it again enabling the connection first & this is what I get & it never prompts me for a connection to choose. Internet browsing within the phone works.

In #149:

Code:

What have you changed since #149? Say, have you paired up the devices first?

What were the problems you got in #151 and #155?
I considered wifi tethering, but n900 only does adhoc & Honeycomb tablets don't even see those networks w/o some workaround. Why did google have to make this so difficult?

Have you triggered the "Tethering" under "Bluetooth Settings" on honeycomb's side?
