Interesting. For some strange reason when I try to use PAN client
(familiar 0.8.1), I cannot connect another bluetooth connection like a
bluetooth keyboard. I must use PAN server NAP in order to have more
than one bluetooth connection the 3875 ipaq. I will try again tonight
to see if I can get PAN client working and connect the keyboard at the
same time.

The error that I see with all bluetooth utitilies is either "function
not implemented" or "cannot connect input/output" error when trying to
connection another bluetooth device when running PAN client. I checked
the mail archives and did a google and found nothing helpful. I have
tried dbus and nodbus even compile and installed the latest bluetooth
utitilies and modules still the same thing. Strange but I thought it
worked at one time with 0.7.2, but installed that yesterday and had
the exact same result.
