There is a telephone application http://www.antcom.de/ant-phone/ which I
have tried with a cable headset.

There is also some BT headset driver for ALSA
http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/~jp/snd-bluez-sco/ which I haven't tried (yet).

has anyone tried this application with the capidrv? For example with a
AVM B1. I own one, but mine is build into the wrong machine for such
tests and I need it there. I run some tests with a BlueFRITZ! AP-ISDN
and call management stuff seems to work, but I don't hear anything on my
soundcard.

Is there anyone who will spend some time in adding native CAPI support
to this application?

Regards

Marcel

In my setup, I used capidrv and a BlueZ cmtp connection to a BlueFritz! 
AP-X (and a cable-headset), and it worked although I got large 
latencies. Also see my post(s) at the ant-phone mailing list:

I guess Roland has to be asked this :) I cross-post this to his mailing 
list as well.

This is definitely on the TODO list. I hope to get more time for this
soon.

Feel free to contribute. Unfortunately, ant-phone is currently quite
/dev/ttyI* based.

bye,
