Is It possible to dial the 700p using a Palm Tungsteng E2 dialer?

I have used Palm devices since they came out with the original Palm Pilot.

I got a XV6700 from Verizon. As a web browser is really good, but as a phone SUCKS. I had to get it because it was the only thing that will synch with my office contacts database (DeskNow).

As I understand, the guys from DeskNow just came up with a connector that will work with the 700p.

So here is my dilema:

I got a personal contacts database that goes back (say 10 years) in a palm device. My company got another 10 years worth of contacts in their serrvers.

I would like to keep on using my faithful Tungsten E2 and use it to dial out using the 700p. I used to do this for the longest time using a Sony Erickson phone, and I know it is possible with the Motorolla Razor V3.

I have several reasons for liking this setup:

1) My boss pick up my cell phone bill
2) I keep my contacts and appointments separate from those of the office. (They really don't need to know the phone number of Aunt Luisa do they?)
3) In the event they decide to change the phones again, I do not have the problem of geting my personal data out of it.

So I imagine there got to be a bunch of people out there in the same situation. Which in my opinion may me easily solved by carrying the office 700p in one pocket and my personal Palm Tungsten E2 in the other as long as I can dial directly from the Palm Tungsten E2 as I used to.

I know that the bluetooth profile required to dial using the Palm Dialer software is not available in all the phones - I already try it in a verizon store - I get a "Function not available" error every time I try. So here are my questions:

1) Does the 700p has the BT profile required to dial it using the Palm Dialer Software?
2) IF the profile is not available, is there a way of adding it to the 700p?
3) Is there a way of adding the required driver to the Palm Tungsten E2?
4) Or is it required to have a diferent Palm Device to do this?

Well that is all. I know there is someone visiting this web site that have the answer. Please share it with me.

Thanks
