I'm using bluetooth-next, and it boots and seems to find the openlabs.co 
adapter just fine.

GettingStarted-0.2 describes the "iz" command.  I don't have "iz".  I 
built/installed on the Pi itself, downloaded from
http://wpan.cakelab.org/releases/.  I do see an iwpan command installed 
(see below).Are there more user tools or do we just substitute iz with 
iwpan?

Once an IPv6 address is assigned to wpan0, should I be able to ping 
wpan0 from an IPv6 address on a different box?  I ask because I only 
have one Pi at the moment and can't test radio to radio.
