Re: xPL for Phones...

[Tom Van den Panhuyzen <tomvdp@xxxxxxxxx>]

That's the reason why I bought a bluetooth phone.
But I wonder how they actually manage to put the phone to use for home
automation!  Just getting my pc to recognize the phone is a nightmare.
And while I am ranting: do not buy the Samsung E720.  It is completely
locked: I had to setup my own wap server because the phone does not
accept Java applications via bluetooth.  So I have to pay a connection
to connect via wap to my own wap server to install my own applications
on it.
Oh and the sound is horrible too.  I can't really use it to make phone
calls.
