That's one possibility.

OK, that's a much better way of phrasing that :). The thing that's a little
confusing (to me) is that means that if the NXT named "Ann" wants to communicate
with one named "Ben", you can establish a BT connection with Ann as the "master"
(sending messages out on connection [1], for instance) and Ben as the "slave"
(replying over connection [0]). So while they have one "connection", each NXT
refers to it in a different fashion ([1] or [0], in this case).

Yep. One single block to send a message, another to receive. Very simple,
it's just the connection terminology that gets me.

Yes. For instance, with Ann as master I think you could have:
Ann [1]--> Ben
[2]--> Cat
[3]--> Dan

Yes, but I'm interested to know: Are these multiple connections available via the LEGO retail software, or did you program your pair some other way? It's just (...)
