    <title>Connection to PC</title>

    <para>I use bluetooth to connect my mobile to PC. Since other means of
    communication too outdated (IR and serial) I pay attention only to
    bluetooth.</para>

    <para>I found Affix bluetooth stack more sutable for my mobile. This stack
    was design in Nokia Research Center. It is easier to install and more
    handy in use.</para>

    <para>The information about communication between mobile phone and Affix
    you can find in <ulink url="/bthow">Affix Bluetooth HOWTO</ulink>. Most of
    the examples are against my Nokia 7650.</para>

    <title>Using the mobile as a GPRS modem</title>

    <para>I use Nokia 7650 as a GPRS modem. First I create connection to my
    mobile through bluetooth as described in <ulink url="/bthow">Affix
    Bluetooth HOWTO</ulink>.</para>

    <para>Then I get device /dev/btyx which I can use like a /dev/ttySx
    connected to modem.</para>

    <para>Here we go to ppp connection to provider. Establishing PPP
    connection is described in <ulink url="/linux/howto/gprs/">GPRS PPP
    setting for Nokia mobiles (tested in Finnish Sonera &#38; Radilinja
    networks)</ulink> .</para>

    <title>Using Symbian mobile phone as a remote control.</title>

    <para>If you are lucky like me having Symbian mobile phone (7650/3650 etc)
    you can control applications on your linux workstation by mobile phone
    with bemused symbian application installed. In the example below I control
    xmms mp3 player.</para>

    <para>The procedure of compiling and installing bemused server for linux
    is described in <ulink url="/linux/howto/affix/bemused">Bemused with Affix
    bluetooth stack.</ulink></para>
