It does - fine. However there's a bug in my 2.4.29 kernel that prevents
pcmcia from working and keep the green led on even on suspend. I am
working  on fixing it. It is unrelated to bluetooth and doesn't happens
with a 2.4.25

I did mix our approach. I best like the result that each of our separate
previous tries.

I kept my approach of a separate board + connector but used your BT chip =
-
much better than my previous chip (Siemo - couldn't make it work. Firmwar=
e
problem?)

See :

Much simpler, and easier to connect. No need to solder on the simpad boar=

too. (http://externe.net/temp/burnt.jpg - when you miss it like I did you
don't fry the whole simpad :-)

Now working on adding GSM/GPRS. I may have to kick the IRDA or the
external serial port for that.
