Then, you can use the computer as a handsfree device: you carry the phone in your briefcase and the laptop in the desk, so you can make/receive calls without speaking to the phone -you speak to the laptop. A different thing is to use the phone as audio input: in this case you want to speak to your phone, but you want the streaming audio to reach the computer via bluetooth in order to use VoIP there (for example). So you use the phone just like a headset, the difference is that you have to hold it by hand instead of hook it in the ear. This way, all you need in the Linux point is Bluez and btsco (bluetooth-alsa) in order to have AudioGateway support. The problem is what you need in the phone end: I think at least Symbian, and the possibility to "read/write" from/to the phone audio device and implement the headset profile. Do you think is it possible? Has it been managed anywhere? I guess many people wouldn't like the idea at all... ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by: Beat the post-holiday blues Get a FREE limited edition SourceForge.net t-shirt from ThinkGeek.
