Thanks for taking on the idea Chris.

And you did it! :-) That is so amazing that I owe you several Beers when
ever you come down to Boston.

barry checked out of git this morning
I get this error when I try to fuze mount:
bfuse - FUSE filesystem for Blackberry databases
Copyright 2008, Net Direct Inc. (http://www.netdirect.ca/)
Using: Barry library version 0.12 (little endian)
unique: 1, opcode: INIT (26), nodeid: 0, insize: 56
INIT: 7.9
flags=0x0000000b
max_readahead=0x00020000
bfuse: symbol lookup error: bfuse: undefined symbol: _ZN5Barry4InitEbPSo
It's a BlackBerry Pearl with `sudo bcharge -o` just in case.
I'd have run it through gdb but I have no idea how it works.

I think I can't wait to get it running, I want to see what files are in
there :-)
Regarding the way it's going to mount all blackberry devices. Once it's
been stabilised as a fuse plugin we'll need to think about integrating
it into hal. What this means is that we create storage nodes, fill in
applicable data and gnome-automount or what ever handles your mounting
experience will use the fuse drive.
In order to do this the hal nodes hang off each usb device. So from each
BlackBerry you have a different storage and volume node which mounts
that one specific BlackBerry.
So for integration we'll need the option of mounting one blackberry
given either it's usb sysfs path, it's hal udi or some other unique id.
