[ILUG] syncing a mobile phone address book

[Steven Satelle]

I just bought a new phone (upgrade from a nokia 3210), I bought a samsung 
SGH-Z500V and it has all the bells and whistles. It does syncing of the 
address book and  calendar, which is very important to me. 
Which leads to the problem. I have 2 methods to use for the syncing, bluetooth 
or a usb cable. On windows, the software sync's the address book via the 
cable and  has an option to sync via a virtual bluetooth serial port, but I 
cant get either method to work on linux. 
Bluez will find the phone, i can run kbluetoothd and it see's the phone, I can 
then browse its fileSys no problems, but I cannot get irmcSync to see the 
phone at all, a bluetooth scan (in the irmc) will not even see the phone at 
all. 
I've tried kmobileTools, and multiSync to no avail.
It p^&%'s  me off to have to go into windows and run outlook, just to sync the 
calendar/address book.
Has anyone managed to set up one of these phones, or do they know how to get 
irmcSync to see it?

I can run:
sdptool browse 00:15:b9:9f:c8:ee

which returns all the services (below)

I'm running Debian etch and the version of irmcsync is 0.99
