Yes - I was using gatttool to prove I could still connect without going
through bluetoothd. Should I expect the GATT UUIDs, services and so on
to be available through dbus once I've called Connect on the device?

What I was seeing yesterday was that after calling Connect the nodes in
dbus don't change so I still can't see the GATT bits. Is there a code
path I could look through to see why this is?

Thanks
