Hi Ken,

is this a Windows or a Linux based iPAQ?

The <dev> is not the HCI device. It is the RFCOMM device you wanna
create. So use "rfcomm0" or "0" for short.

Where do you see this?

Actually this depends on the program on the other side. If it is a
Windows iPAQ I don't know how they count the bytes.

Regards
