CSR goes for Cambridge Silicon Radio, they seem to be one of the
biggest BT module makers. They use a protocol that isn't defined in the BT
specification, BCSP, for BlueCore Serial Port. That's one of the things
the newton doesn't understand.

I'm preparing a manual to make those card work. It involves having
access to a windows laptop and a linux laptop (knoppix will do).
For changing the BCSP mode, a program called PSKey is used from linux.
Then, depending on the card, a program called Oxprom must be used.
