iPhone and any other Smartphone peer-to-peer communication over bluetooth
I want to build a simple bluetooth chat program that can do a 2 way chat with 2 mobile devices.
I know that I can use gamekit to develop such application for iphone and ipod touch. But I want to know is, is it possible for other smart phones (running my application) to discover and communicate with iphones and other devices as well?
in simple: I want my application to run on iphone, symbian and android and to be able to discover and communicate with each other over bluetooth.

There is no public API for discovery or communication with arbitrary Bluetooth devices in the iOS SDK.
