Yes, that could work :-) I'm a bit against python being launched at startup and running all the time due to RAM consumption but it is really your choice. Without python it is not such fun.

But still working prototype in python would be good. For OS2008 it can be later rewritten in Vala which is not much harder than python and would be better fit for daemon launched at startup and running all the time. See http://live.gnome.org/Vala/BlueZSample, using d-bus is not that hard in Vala.

Also someone already automated this before with dbus-scripts
http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...3834#post53834 so you even don't need to write such daemon listening for IAP events.
