Nikita,
This problem is device dependent, since a "space available" command is not
really in the specification. If a device, such as your phone, is allowing
the 60MB transfer to proceed, the phone is at err here - the reason for this
is that in the OBEX Put command (a length OBEX header), we send the size of
the file it is going to receive. The phone should know better, and refuse
the transfer.
Therefore, I really don't know of any effective way to test for remote space
available.
