So I'm traveling and sitting and have all my gadgets with me. One of them is my work laptop running Windows 7. One of them is an iPhone I use as a Touch (wife broke hers, I got her replacement for cheap while she upgraded). Another is my new Nexus 7. And finally, there is my N900.

So I am hanging out having a drink and want to be online on all of the devices. Problems...several

1. Nexus doesn't do ad-hoc networks
2. iPhone doesn't do bluetooth PAN
3. Neither do Bluetooth DUN

I want all my stuff on the internet and the N900 is what I use as my hotspot.

Well, I figured it out.

1. Connect Win7 to N900 via BT DUN
2. Connect Nexus to N900 via BT-PAN
3. Share DUN to iPhone via Windows 7
   

It is working like a champ!

N900 using BT-DUN and BT-PAN at same time!

Thanks, jschan for the BT-PAN scripts!
Edit
I tried to use the wi-fi on Windows via the Nexus first, but then started getting authentication errors. So I decided to try BT-PAN at some time as BT-DUN. Hence was quite impressed it worked.

Nice to hear that the N900 still bashing other devices

Good luck with that

Oh, and I'm using Nokia Suite to send/recieve SMS via bluetooth at the same time!

I highly doubt any other phone out there can do this, is there?

I use SSH to send messages and initiate calls.
You can even automate this stuff.

Anyways, I'm really appreciating how useful the N900's hardware is now that I've got the N9 as my main phone, and the N900's service as a nice little Linux box.

I miss the hardware keyboard a lot - even if the N9's software keyboard is nicely spaced and the tactile feedback is ridiculously, unbelievably amazing, I can't seem to use the terminal anywhere near as comfortably as on the N900. Waiting to switch VKB layouts isn't quite the same as holding BlueArrow.

I also miss the kickstand, which does have its uses as a movie player/slideshow complement.

And most of all, boy do I miss the SD card slot. The N900's a fat man, and my original plan to carry both the N9 and N900, with the latter to stream media over ad-hoc WiFi fell apart after one day. It's just too much hassle to carry around another device when you can get a tiny, replaceable card smaller than a freaking microSIM to haul up to 64GB around with you.

What scripts are you using for this? SSH would be much more useful than using Nokia Suite. I could use it from my PC or Nexus to automate.

Thanks!

Meeting with pinboard drawings , my chief tries to make
photos of the pinboard with his iPhone.
Fails - iPhone only shows lines and pixel garbage.

Guess who jumps in: me and my trusted N900.
First class photos - chief angry about his iPhone .
I had to tease him "Was it ever able to make photos?"
The other guys in the room laughing and asking what device I am
using.
My chief: "He is using the device, which made Nokia bancrupt."
Touche.

Everything you'd need to control pretty much all of the phone is right here.

Would you be able to explain your signature about Smart Reflex? I'm curious how this works. Thanks.
