Bluetooth c# code sample

Here's a quick code sample of how to scan for Bluetooth devices and display some properties of that device.  This was deployed to a Motorola hand held device.  The framework is the Compact Framework and the Bluetooth functionality is made possible by the InTheHand.Net.Personal API.

                return ret;
            }


            return ret;

        }
    }
