Hi pals,

I want to attempt using bluetooth to send out sms. This will entail
tether a desktop to the cell phone for connectivity. So, I think I
will need a bluetooth hardware that should play well with bluez (The
Linux bluetooth stack) and Nokia bluetooth stack. I am assuming that
Nokia has reused most of their software across most of their phones,
so being specific about the phone isn't necessary. If that assumption
is however wrong, I would love to connect to a Nokia 6300.

Now, the first thing I did was to go on line for some hardware
compatibility thing of sort. Haha, seem that such a list existed
sometime back, but apparently Marcel Holtmann was forced to take it
down. Looking closer, it look like its still there but haven't been
update for over 2 years. Thats when I thought may be I should ask
here, just in case someone has worked on it recently.

Whats the best hardware to pick up to enable me fulfill the above
small project? I would  appreciate  sharing any pertinent experience
here

Regards,
William
