Good summary!

Calls are handled with the Hands-Free Profile (HFP). After (!) connecting
via SCO, you are able to use AT commands for call handling, call-lists and
caller-name display. When you need more detailed phonebook and call-lists,
you go for the Phone-Book-Access Profile (PBAP).
The current state of Bluetooth profiles in iOS 6:
<http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3647>
HFP offers HD-Voice aka Wide-Band Speech (WBS; with mSBC codec)
MAP offers MMS and SMS (no E-Mail access)
PBAP offers Mobile Phone-Book (ME) not SIM
Earlier firmwares like the last iOS (version 3.1.3) for the original iPhone
included IrMC Level 2 for accessing the phone book, as well. Back then and
today the functionality of IrMC can be done in PBAP.
All these services are not Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) but classic profiles.
Links to specifications and other implementations, are on my website:

Hope too it helps someone.
