After reading http://www.a7eng.com/downloads/a7-ds-eb101.pdf it looks
like the device has an automatic discovery mode which is activated by
pressing a switch for more than 5 but less than 10 seconds.  It seems
to assume it's talking to another device which has a serial port profile
service enabled...maybe it only works with other eb101's.

It also has a command mode (http://www.a7eng.com/downloads/a7-qs-serial.pdf)
which lets you read things like the device settings and information about
remote devices from the module's point of view.  Especially interesting
ones (page 9) are:

	get connectable  (should be on)
	get trustedlist  (should include your paired bluez device)
