[Bluez-devel] Re: possible to use phone itself as headset?

Hi Marcel,
Maybe I haven't explain myself... I don't know what you have found at 
the link Lars gave, I only see that there is a implementation of the 
headset profile in BlueZ (so you could speak to the laptop and the 
laptop would make a bluetooth link to the phone, which is connected to 
the GSM network)... but what we need in order to use a phone as a 
headset is not found in this link, at least I can't find it! :c)
