Even if there is a high enough data rate, I think transmission distance would be an issue. Most bluetooth devices are only designed for a range of about 10 meters, and less if there are walls and other objects to go through. It seems to me that establishing a sort of ad- hoc wifi network would work better (although I know Android doesn't really like ad-hoc networks).
