Something like 

import serial
ser=serial.Serial(0,19200,timeout=3)
print ser.portstr
ser.write("ATZ\r")
print "got"
line=ser.read(10)
print line
ser.close()

worked on the first try on my w2k box, when connected to a Siemes S25
via COM1. I bet it will would with the Nokia, too, because "ATZ" is
almost universally understood. :-)

My wife had asked me to dump all her phonebook numbers from her handy
for backup purposes. Siemens only sold an somewhat expensive program
for the S25, which I didn't buy. A program that I've got with a newer
S45 unfortunately didn't even recognize the S25. 

The following qick&dirty snippet did the trick, and it works with both
the s25 and the s45.
