The iPod-styled hub will also now serve to carry the BT Fusion service, which lets a customer use one phone to make both landline and mobile calls. Previously, Bluetooth rather than wi-fi had been used as a bridge between a Fusion user's mobile and the PC's modem.

Currently, there are just two phones that will work with BT Fusion, both made by Motorola. One, the Razr V3x, can be seen here.

The telco is promising more device manufacturers will join the roster before the end of the year. "We're in talks with Nokia," a spokesman said. "That's looking good."
