python\bluetooth / wsgi / apache 2.2

I'm wanting to read from my bluetooth device (it just sends data/header with a checksum at the end, in a continuous mode "a biofeedback device") and I'm getting a weird error in my logs not allowing me to use multiple sockets. I guess with wsgi, I'm creating a link/module between the two apis (apache / python), and then lets apache manage the socket / port communication on the application layer. How ever, I'm not able to connect to my device. Is there something simple I'm missing? The test code is the following

class MyWriter:

        self.logfile = file(filename, 'a')

    def write(self, text):

        self.logfile.write(text)

writer = MyWriter(sys.stdout, 'logging.txt')
sys.stdout = writer

socket.connect((device, port))

data = ""

	while True:

I realize that in order for me to feed information back to apache and then onto my client, is I need to def application().... but I wanted to make sure it was just that, and not something that I don't know about using sockets.
