gnome-bluetooth and phone-manager on Ubuntu?

[Chris Turner]

Hi,

Thanks for the heads up on the Bluetooth :)

Problem I now have is I am unable to get my Fortuna Bluetooth GPS
slipper to connect to my PC.
I had a look at the phone book app and it got me as far as popping my
pin no. for the GPS slipper in which shows its talking to each other.
Also the GPS slipper shows up in the Bluetooth manager but I cannot
manage to get any further with this applet.
Are there any other apps out there that could help me connect as i'm now
thinking this is only aimed at mobile phones? :(
