Giovanni,

I agree with John, this sounds very interesting; I have been looking to
do something at least remotely related to this, but standalone (though
perhaps I've misunderstood the purpose of your software completely).
I've been searching for a way to use a host PC as a
handsfree/speakerphone for my v3/v3x via bluetooth. The closest I've
come is the software at:
http://wall4.soft.uni-linz.ac.at/_wiki/tiki-index.php?page=ProjectBluezHandsfree

...but I only once got it to partly work with my V3 (very little audio,
and all broken up) and no audio at all with my V3x.
It seems the links to the tarballs are dead though so if anyone wants
them I think I can find them somewhere on my computer.

I have tried sending the 'AT+MODE=8' command to my phone and it indeed
does trigger a change in the USB state: it disconnects and attempts to
reconnect, but fails.

Also I don't mean to flood the list with something that might be
considered offtopic so unless someone feels any of what I've said is
relevant this will be my first and last post.

Cheers,
Jesse Burt
