Is it possible to use this syntax:

s = Serial(5)

(0 = COM1, so 5 = COM6) ?

No way to automatically connect to a specific bt device?

Yes :o) If it is as simple as you described, I'll go this way and use bt
instead of wired serial port...

I've used only ceserial with bluetooth in little projects like winamp/bmpx 
remote controller, and a sms sender via a bluetooth phone,
and so far it seems to work like a regular serial port.
However, there's some little tricks to make it work at first :

1) You must create an ongoing port in your bluetooth settings, by default the 
outgoing port is COM6
2) In your code:

from ceserial import Serial

s = Serial("COM6:") # "COM6" only will not work, since it is based on the 
CreateFileW WinCE API function 
s.open() # This will pop a dialog allowing to choose which bt device to connect

# Then regular serial code

Hope it helps,
Alexandre
