If this driver is faking Asterisk as a headset to the BT cellphone, does this mean that it can only answer incoming calls, but NOT ask the cellphone to dial a number? I am asking because I would like to see if I can use this driver to bypass any hardware gsm-gateway to obtain a 'gsm_trunk'. Would something like Dial(bluetooth/33512345594, 20) work? Of course using the correct channel indication for the chan_bluetooth module... TIA Aldo

Yes, you can dial out just fine.
