Is it possible to use this syntax:

    s = Serial(5)

(0 = COM1, so 5 = COM6) ?

>s.open() # This will pop a dialog allowing to choose which bt device to connect

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...
