I tried it but without using iptables: using openssh as a socks proxy.
If you have the openssh server installed and running on the tablet, from 
the host pc you can ssh into the tablet this way:

ssh -D 6969 tablet.address


then on the host configure your applications to use a socks5 proxy at 
localhost:6969 (you can use tsocks for applications that don't support 
socks5 directly).
If the host pc is running windows, you can use putty, in the "ssh 
tunnels" panel add a tunnel with the "Dynamic" option set.
It's not as transparent as setting up nat on the tablet but it works.
