Hi; thanks for your response. It's not clear from your email:
do you mean that you *currently, today* have a setup which uses
QEMU's bluetooth support; or do you just mean that you have
an idea for how you would like to use it in future ? The request
for users was really aimed mostly at finding if we had
any current users, because as far as we could tell the
code we have at the moment is just broken and doesn't
work at all.

thanks
