Almost makes me miss the days of simple IR ports to share data...
But yes, it definitely sounds like what you are talking about would be setting up an ad-hoc network that any user could then connect to, creating almost a cloud. Unfortunately, at least on my Droid, it seems the phone is only capable of Infrastructure mode. Having a widget that could put the phone into an appropriate ad-hoc mode then share data would be a great feature, and could even bring back one of the nice networking features of the old IR-enabled PDAs - sharing virtual business cards.
