Not yet with WLAN. As I think has been mentioned in this thread or maybe at
another list with selective WLAN obsession, power consumption is an issue.
But there are phones with Bluetooth, mostly outside Japan at this point.
But C413S from Sony for Au has it, and Toshiba have large plans for it in
future phones for Au, including the use for hotspots and possibly also
scatternets (hopping from phone to phone, a physical P2P net).
