oh yeah, the patch fixes a stupid paste and copy mistake. Thanks.

The HOTSYNC record is the record the Palm OS is searching for when it is
doing HotSync over Bluetooth. It will fall back to a normal SP record,
but this can be confusing if the sync host runs multiple targets. The
PALMOS record is an identification record like NOKID, I think. This
hasn't been confirmed and so far I haven't seen any device requesting
it.

The pilot-link library should be extended to do everything by itself.
This means the service registration and the RFCOMM channel handling to
map the HotSync protocol over RFCOMM.
