Software to use BT I/O board
 

anyone know if it is easy to make a to turn devices on/off with this BT I/O device? It would be very nice to be able to control devices like the front door of your house (opening it) or turning light/heat on off.. Maybe turn your heater in your car on before going out in the cold :)

Looks like the module uses the Bluetooth Serial Port Profile, which is accessible from Python (the PyBluez module, included with PyMaemo). Using Python it shouldn't be too difficult to create a simple application to switch I/Os on and off.

Another way is to create a virtual RFCOMM port by using the "rfcomm" command line tool and then access the virtual serial port from software written in any language, even shell scripts.
