Lots of great information can be found at the following location (but I had trouble following it with Tiger (10.4))

General Comments

Setting up a bluetooth terminal has been easy: open bluetooth preferences (from the bluetooth icon in menubar)

Then go to "sharing" and at bottom of that window, click on "Add serial port service" and then make sure it is of type rs232 (not modem) and probably make it not secure to avoid typing in pins all the time. Let's call it btconsole.

This should create /dev/tty.btconsole. In a terminal, type sudo screen /dev/tty.btconsole

Problems with Bluetooth on Mac OS X 10.4

If things are messed up with bluetooth, some people have had success with a reboot and reset as follows. While booting, hold down the four keys: apple, option, letter O, and letter F. This brings up a text interface on screen. Type in these three commands, each command ends with the return key.

• reset-nvram
• set-defaults
• reset-all

there is something called the blued (/usr/sbin/blued) but cannot seem to stop or start it.
