hello,

After further work on this, I find that it's not working exactly right. 
The python code above gets the signal correctly, but that doesn't help
when you are trying to answer a call.  Terminating a call works fine,
because you are connected, but when a call is ringing in, there is no
connection so the signal event never is called.  Anyone know of a way to
make this work?

Thank you,
Dave
