Bluetooth : Simultaneous Connectivity

Is it possible to connect more than one equipment at same time.

[For example is it possible to :

(i) connect to another PC through 'bluetooth LAN' while I am connected to a bluetooth mobile phone ?

(ii) connect to two other PCs equiped with bluetooth simultaneously using bluetooth LAN ?]
