Well, you'd think.

Welcome to Android. Where **** all "just works".

You need the phone to act as a server to the Netbook. Either via SMB
(Samba - Windows stylee) or FTP.

Or the other way around - possibly enabling a share on the netbook.

It may be possible to crowbar the bluetooth OBEX stack into the equation.
But Androids version of bluetooth is even more sucky than Windows - which
is saying something.
