Hi Brian, Yes, I would like Barry to support database access over a bluetooth transport using the same library API, as an option. No work has been done toward this end, yet, but it's on my mental todo list. When we started the Barry project, it looked like the old serial devices were going away in favour of USB devices, so we thought it didn't make sense to follow the serial protocol too closely. The serial side of things was already supported at the time by the Cassis project. But the serial protocol came back, in a way, in the form of Bluetooth. So we'll just have to add it. :-) Depending on what your requirements are, XmBlackBerry might work for you. Rick Scott would be the man to talk to for help on getting it running. - Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Barry-devel mailing list Barry-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/barry-devel
