I tried this already. I can initiate a connection from A, but whatever
the type of the connection (slave or master) I can't initialise another
one. So I can't switch role on the second connection. I can switch role
of the first one, works great, but I doesn't allow me to start a second
one. It always fail silently.
I noticed that if I connected as slave, a scan shows me the 3rd iPaq.
Connected as master, a scan comes back empty. But if B and C initialise
the connections as slave, then A hold two connections as master no
problem.
Well, looks like my curiosity doesn't inspire many...
