Will this need a mobile phone with bluetooth support or can you use a
mere bluetooth headset as a client, if so how would you pick up and
hang up or dial?
I would really love to play with that, but as everybody knows, Japan
is soooo incredibly far advanced in mobile phones that the only phone
I could buy here which does have bluetooth works only as a data modem
for a Windoze notebook, no voice, no headset support, no addressbook
syncing, which is why I then bought an iPod for the $250 the phone
would have cost.

It supports both.
Regarding the headset, i have not seen how that works yet, but i would
say you would need to enter the number somewhere (maybe special prefix
on any phone + phoneno. to get the call to the headset)
For the cellphone, this is really grand stuff:
I originially was hoping for using the cellphone as a handset to the
Asterisk box, but it's quite the oposite.
Theo has basically obsoleted the expensive PSTN to GSM converters.
Asterisk connects via bluetooth to the phone and uses it as a FXO line.
Neat stuff.
I'm seeing forward to, how this work progresses, because it's really
promissing.

Oh well, I guess I could use the manager API to initiate the call from
my Powerbook. Cool! So, where do I get a Bluetooth headset now? I
don't think they sell those over here either.

Too bad. Japan and Korea are the only two countries on the planet
without GSM. Even Afghanistan has got GSM now. We don't even get a
proper Bluetooth keitai. Frustrating.
