I have the game, but I'm pretty sure it's just for people around you.
So say your friend has it and you are right next to each other, you could then link up and play.

I may be wrong though.

You were right about the other person being in the other room, or on the same wifi network...but it still doesnt work, it says error when you try to start the game, hopefully they will fix it. It just seems that multiplayer on an iphone would be so cool

What did you do to get it to the point of starting a game? Are there settings that must be adjusted in General Settings? I've got a few iPhones and iPT in the same room and nothing is happening; just the message that it is trying to connect to a server.

I got it to work! The phones/iPod Touch need to be on the same network (close by). The first person touches the "host game/race" button. The others touch "join game/race". Follow the on-screen directions. If you select anything else you will be disconnected. So, select your vehicle first/before you opt to host or join a race.
