How do bluetooth devices map to COM ports?

Anil Dhawan, a Program Manager in the Windows Mobile group, gave an interview
at msdn channel 9(http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=42234) that
discusses how to access bluetooth devices as simple COM ports so that you can
communicate with simple ReadFile/WriteFile calls.
This was encouraging to me because I am just starting to investigate how to
use bluetooth as a cable replacement for some sensors that my company sells.
Unfortunately, his example was kind of bogus in one respect: he just hard
coded his app to use COM6.
I need to be able to talk to up to 3 separate bluetooth enabled sensors
simultaneously. How do I go about mapping each sensor to a separate COM port?
And how do I detect when sensors come and go?
