Bluetooth examples?

Hi,

Does anyone have any examples of Bluetooth programming for PocketPC in
Python?

Specifically I'm wanting to write a PocketPC python program to:
 - discover nearby bluetooth devices
 - connect to one of these
 - send and receive data
 - close the connection

Cheers
David

hello...

After a little googling I found this...
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/pythonce/2007-January/001747.html

If you do figure out a way please let me know... I'd probably find this useful too :)


cu,

FWICT the best approach would be to trawl through the bluetooth API docs
in MSDN (maybe starting somewhere like
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms898944.aspx), then port a
couple of the example programs from C/C++ to python using ctypes.

This is a lot of work, to get past all the 'surprises' and come up with
some robust working code. If anyone can help with a shortcut, please let
us know.

Cheers
David
