hmmm... i'm just curious why are you using SP (Serial Port) profile? it 
is not wrong and it will work but such configuration is prone to errors. 
basically you have two processes: rfcomm_sppd(8) and ppp(8) and you 
really want to synchronize them, i.e. ppp(8) should only be started 
after rfcomm_sppd(8) successfully connected. that is what rfcomm_pppd(8) 
does. does your phone support DUN profile? if rfcomm_pppd(8) does not 
work for you, please let me know and i will fix it (if possible).

thanks,
max
