Is this better than simplify the API removing the Reconnection stuff?
On average how much time takes to reconnect achieve the timeout?
BTW, failure can occur on OpenDataChannel as well, that just happens.

No. The fd should go to the Agent automatically, once you try to
open a data channel a callback in the Application should be registered.
The callback is a function in the Agent API with the fd as parameter,
that will be called once the connection in the lower layer is done.
See the NewConnection method from the HandsfreeAgent Interface.
