Okay, so this is a rather old thread...

However, I stumbled on something interesting this evening: http://bluez.sourceforge.net. This is an opensource Bluetooth protocol stack for Linux. If they can do it, why can't we? Anyone interested in looking at the source? Maybe someone here who's also active at OS2Ports.com? Of course, this is (only) the protocol stack; the actual hardware driver(s) would still need to be written. There is an impressive list of supported cards for Linux at this point (http://bluez.sf.net), which might provide a useful starting point.

If Serenity had enough users to prompt an inquiry, would IBM consider it, do you think? (That and FireWire...?)

Does anybody know of any BlueTooth driver development? IBM makes a nice
little BlueTooth PC Card available (cheap, on eBay, as a matter of fact).

  


No plannings on that, AFAIK.
I had chatted with Tim Mecking a while ago and he promised to look into it,
but haven't seen anything since then.
