Hi Stef,

adding bluetooth support to libsyncml is fairly trivial. The only thing
that has to be done is to expose the configuration through the config if
the obex transport and add the appropiate connection code (which can be
copied from obexftp). After that, libsyncml can handle bluetooth. Adding
support for irda would be the same procedure.

Ill see if i get around to adding this the next days. I will drop a mail
to the mailing list once it is finished.
