As I was working on my ruby-nxt module, I managed to get the nxt to
connect to my laptop as both a master and a slave. On my laptop (a
MacBookPro) I created an incoming bluetooth serial port and an
outgoing serial port on the DEV-B device service on the NXT. I then
initiated a connection from the NXT to the laptop on Connection 1 and
then initiated a connection from my laptop to the NXT on the DEV-B
port. On the NXT screen under bluetooth connections, it showed my
laptop on both Connection 0 and Connection 1.
I haven't tried to actually communicate on both connections at the
same time yet and I only have one NXT so perhaps it wouldn't work
between NXTs, but it seems to be possible for the NXT to act as both a
master and slave when connecting to other bluetooth devices... I'll
experiment with it some more this weekend.
