Summary:                    Blackberry Pearl (8100) rarely initialises
Description: 
Fedora 9, bluez-3.35-1 (rpms) Asterisk 1.6.0-beta9 from RPM and
asterisk-addons-1.6.0-rc1 from source.

When using a blackberry pearl (8100) I need to unload and load chan_mobile
multiple times before the state moves from Init to Free. Chan mobile
working great with other phones (e.g. Nokia).
Blackberry appears to not respond consistently to (or response may be
missed?) AT+CIND=? however if I attempt to work around this by issuing
AT+CMER=3,0,0,1 manually the BB appears to initialise but the connection is
lost when I recieve a call (has occasionally caused BB to reboot also!). If
the BB does (after repeated attempts) initialise properly then it works
correctly for the duration of that connection.

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
Good news!  I got this working by forcing AT+CMER=3,0,0,1 before AT+CLID=?
and everthing including calls worked fine (audio sounded a bit strange
though).  I am going to add an option (maybe something like blackberry=1)
to force this behavior.

The HFP spec specifically states that the AT+CLID=? should come before the
AT+CMER, so I am not sure why the blackberry behaves this way.  I am going
to look into this some more to see if it has anything to do with the
AT+BRSF value we are sending.
