Sorry for the interruption, but this is what I've been waiting (lurking) 
to hear about on the devel list.  I have a Nokia 6620, also with no 
serial over Bluetooth capability.

BTW, not sure if you all like to be CC'd or just write back to the list 
alone.  SF.net lists are terribly slow, so I'll cc this once and you can 
clue me in if it's a faux pas.

It's been a while since I checked, but I believe sdptool shows me about 
the same regarding obex and syncml.

I believe (95% sure) gnokii requires the serial profile.

Me too :)  I tried grabbing something off CVS, but it was horribly old. 
  Also, my primary workstation is fedora core 3, which I know is a tough 
target to build multisync for.

How does this (syncml) work?  Is the phone client or server or both. 
How will I run the other side?

Thanks - oh, again, let me know if you mind being cc'd or not.
