Unhappy Blackberry Flip 8230 playbook

I can connect the playbook to my flip because I have leaked os 5 so I was wondering if i could use the wifi on the playbook to connect to the internet on my flip. Like use the wifi on playbook as a data plan for the flip since the flip has no wifi and my flip has no plan.

why is having the leaked os stopping you from installing it?
just goto Your BlackBerry Home Page and download the OS5 version there

good luck!

You cannot "use wifi on playbook as a data plan for the flip".

No. As I stated, you cannot use the internet from the PlayBook to get data service on your Flip.
