Windows Mobile seems leagues ahead in this department. The built-in Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) tool already lets you bring your mobile connection to either Bluetooth or USB. With some tweaking it can also bring it to wifi. Developer-made "ICS Control" takes this one step further by letting you connect up almost any connection on the device: wifi to bluetooth, bluetooth to USB, 3G to wifi, almost anything.

It's missing the built in USB driver from the Skypephone though.

This is great - but one problem with the N95 especially is the battery life when using 3G and WiFi together is horrible. It is very easy to drain a full battery. Make sure you have some means of charging your phone to hand!
