What about the BlueTooth? I guess, without to option to install
btconsole (http://opentom.org/Btconsole) via sdcard there's no
chance to do something useful over BT, right?
Looks like the BT stack supports only headset/handsfree operation.
At least "sdptool search DUN" fails to find anything.
Looks like this device is not worth the effort and I'd better return
this crippled thing. :-(

Exactly.
While I'm really liking some features of this Linux-based device like FM
transmitter, speech-input/output, display etc., the 'openness' is missing.
Thinking about putting OpenStreetMap on that piece of hardware - how cool
would that be... but no way.
Personally I refuse to update my TomTom and prefer my OpenMoko FreeRunner
in certain cases (less functionality, better updates).
And (some advertisement), there will be a next-generation FreeRunner with
enough power to catch up with current gadgets:
