Possible for my WM2003 device, although not very easy (the cradle is
located somewhere else). But see below.

Ah, then my bug report is totally OT. I hope you will want to provide me
a few informations anyway, if I may "bug" you a little more...

Not really, I installed it while doing some trials with synce recently.
I don't remember exactly what I tried with it. Could I possibly use that
to connect via bt?

I guess I can wait for the release of 0.13 (I tend to stick to Debian
packaging management when possible), although it depends of how soon is
soon ;-). I know it is difficult to talk about release dates, but do you
know if the release delay is probably closer to one week, one month,
three months...?

My final and important goal is to be able to sync with my Linux box via
bt a Symbian device I intend to buy soon. I wanted to sync with my WM
device as a test to see how it works (and to transfer my data, but I
could probably do it in an other way), and I planned to sync also with
my T630 I currently use. If the procedure is very different from these
devices to the Symbian one, I'd probably better stop searching and wait
for my new device... Do you know how different things will be according
to the device type? More generally speaking, is using synce-hal the
solution you would recommend (or the only one) to sync via bt for a T630
/ WM2003 / Symbian on Debian?
