Could the BT phone be used to dial numbers? What I have in mind in this.
Asterisk on a PC. A BT headset connected to Asterisk. This is the
audio input/output device. A BT phone connected to Asterisk too. You only
use the BT phone to dial a number (send a number over BT to asterisk). 
So it is similar to using a phone/headset combination for mobile (GSM)
communication, but now you are using internet calls instead.
