I'm thinking about using one of the very inexpensive USB bluetooth dongles with a USB Host capable PIC. Does anyone think this is possible for simple serial communication, or worth trying? My initial thoughts were to setup two PCs and establish a simple serial comm between them using the modules, then try to hack the USB protocol using my Beagle - I've done this before with cameras and had a little success in isolating particular commands, but I can imagine reverse engineering would be painful in this case. I can only hack/develop with full speed USB so hopefully the dongles don't require high speed. Does anyone have any idea about where to start with this that doesn't involve reading 6k pages of USB whitepapers?
