support for Nokia phone number types (multiple phone numbers per contact)

Hello,

I am using Wammu on Linux to connect to my Nokia 6103b cell phone via Bluetooth.  Reading contacts from my phone seems to work, except for one problem:  I have a contact with both home + mobile numbers.  This contact is saved in my phone's memory because my phone allows me to neither change the number type nor have more than one number per contact for contacts stored in my SIM.  My phone lets me choose the default number for the contact.  I think my contact's mobile number is the default because the mobile number is listed first on the contact details screen.  Anyway, when Wammu reads the contacts from my phone, it reads only the mobile number.

Does Wammu support multiple phone numbers per contact?  I guess this is a Nokia-specific feature, since I can only use it with contacts stored in my phone's memory?

My configuration:

KDE v3.5.9 on Ubuntu Linux v8.04.1 i686 on a desktop PC
Asus WL-BTD201M (Bluetooth Dongle v2.0 + EDR Class 1)
Nokia 6103b
Gammu v1.15.0
Wammu v0.25
python-gammu v0.24

Thanks,
Brolin

Yes, Wammu supports it, but you need to use proper connection settings
to get the support (it does not work using at commands, you probably
need bluephonet connection).
