Outgoing data:-
Download tiny samba from the repo's & configure it to share the portion of your file system you want data to be transfered from.

Incoming Data:-
Download Wizard Mounter and cofigure to see the samba share as above

Transfer data across wifi to your hearts content

Life would have been so much better if we could send files over the wifi just as we do over bluetooth, "send" and "receive"!

You could do either "Python -m SimpleHTTPServer" in the directory you want to share, then you could go to that ip address on port 8000, ie
"http://192.168.1.35:8000" and they would be there.

Alternatively if you have nc or ncat you could do
"cat yourfile | sudo ncat -l -p 80" and do the same as above without the 8000

You could always try WinSCP or Putty to N900 to copy files over WIFI

It would be VERY nice if we could somehow use WiFi Direct from the N900. I've found an old thread that was asking about that:

http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=65038

and started a new thread:

http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=84603

but no useful response yet.
