That's certainly an option, and I have set up an ad-hoc network. However the Nexus One can't connect to ad-hoc networks, to make that work would require rooting my phone and fiddling with it. I'd rather not go down that path unless absolutely necessary. > > I'd be interested to find out if this is possible using bluetooth...although > if bluetooth devices are assigned an IP address then it should be possible > to route traffic from bluetooth over the Ubuntu box. > > P > Given you can do it the other way round, I thought it must be feasible. Somehow I get the feeling that even if it was possible it would probably still require me rooting my phone.
