Multiple 529's?

[Scanner]

I was wondering. . .are 529's like IRA's in that you can open up multiple accounts but as long as you don't exceed a yearly maximum contribution, you are okay?

That is, I know you can have 2 Roth IRA's and contribute $2500 to each.

Can you do the same for 529's?

Scanner, the same but different

529's have a max for me to contribute for each of my kids (max is per kid per contributor)
My parents could open a 529 for my kids in either Ohio (where we live) or another state and also contribute max.

If my parents contribute to the Ohio 529 I opened, it is part of same yearly max
If my parents open a unique 529, I think it is subject to their own max

Check me on this, the max is so high, I do not know anyone but really rich people which would even approach it.

There is also a yearly max and lifetime max a person can put into the Ohio 529.
