Hello Harry,

My goal is to use the speaker and microphone on the bluetooth device
and design new interactions requiring low latency.  The bluetooth
device is just an I/O device that I want to use.  I am really wanting
to test the latencies of the adc/dac and the bluetooth transport as
well.  I am familiar with creating jack_clients but not sure where to
start as far as the whole bluetooth interaction and linux.  Just
seeing if anyone has attempted a jack client implementation with
bluetooth.

thanks,
jason
