This is mostly a matter of getting a WiFi chip that supports acting as access
point which is something not all of them support AFAIK.
I actually thought it was more a software/firmware issue. I might be wrong.
I suppose one could do it with adhoc networking, too. It would work somewhat
differently than most are used to, but given you somehow get the Neo to speak
WiFi it looks rather easy, actually.
I just noticed that in the email it is not clear that it is listed in
Ideas for OpenMoko requiring WiFi and therefore not applicable to
version 1:
