Now I've done some testing, and with hex numbers it seems to clarify a bit.

When the notebook is freshly booted I get the following values:
sw-off: 0x200
sw-on:  0x201

After I have sent a bluetooth_on:1 the values changes to:
sw-off: 0x240
sw-on:  0x241

When the switch is on and bluetooth is enabled (plugged in):
sw-on bt-on: 0x2c1

If I then move the switch back to off it goes back to 0x240

This is essentially the same numbers as earlier but in hex form, but it 
seems to me that the first bit is responsible for reporting if the 
switch is on or off. If I convert it to binary I get the following:

sw-off bt-off
1000000000
1001000000

sw-on bt-off
1000000001
1001000001

sw-on bt-on
1011000001

I'm not sure if I answered all your (three) questions, if not.. please 
explain a bit further beacause then I didn't understand it.
