I was thinking of setting up a couple of public BT-devices far away from
each other. And hoping that a person could have the same passkey with
all the public BT-devices. witch has no input og output capabilities)
This passkey agent that you talk about, was to be placed in the public
device i suppose. Since a person has to use the same passkey with all
the public BT-devices, I need some sentralized passkey agent.
I=B4ll have to think of some other idea of doing this...
