It should be possible by using something like perhaps a .dll and a Flash wrapper - in theory. For example, the WiiFlash server allows a Wiimote to communicate to a Bluetooth dongle and on to the Flash file. We built some Flash games that are controlled with a Wiimote and a Bluetooth dongle using WiiFlash server (which I believe is just a Zinc or mProjector exe which can talk to the dongle and/or Windows COM of some sort). The communication works both ways too - the Wiimote controller can control sprites and events in a Flash file, and the Flash file can do things to the Wiimote like make it rumble. I can't tell you more than that, but you might try and ask on the WiiFlash forums how they built the WiiFlash server to get Bluetooth communication happening between the Flash file and the dongle.

The idea is that the mobile interface could be used to control a system in close proximity and the SWF would be served via bluetooth from something close by. The app would also need to be able to talk to a central server using XML or similar and I am not sure whether I would need an internet connection or if this could be done over bluetooth too? Can anyone give me any pointers to useful info - I have found the "Mobile & Devices Devnet" site on Adobe and also googling, but any good sources would be useful.
