There's a number of solutions for your problem, but I think the simplest one is using ServletContext as you've been sugested.
Actually JSP uses ServletContext to control application scope beans. So, using ServletContext directly, kindof give you more freedom to work. The concept is simple: you have a pool where you put any instatiated objects by associating them with a String name(like a Hashtable) and all your web clients will be able to retrieve this instance (by acessing your JSP and Servlets pages, of course!) With this in hand, you can construct either a system with threads to control your pairs of users or even instantiate as much objects as needed and put them directly into ServletContext. Take a look at the ServletContext documentation, I think you'll find your way there.
