I'm not sure what you mean about a special chip, but I can tell you that bluetooth can only be accessed via GameKit, which only works on Apple iOS devices. I'm sure there's some private api, but that would require jailbreaking, which would get your app rejected from Apple right away.

  • I've said already - this is only possible via GameKit. Bluetooth on the iPhone has only been made for this and for bluetooth headsets! – Pripyat Feb 28 '11 at 16:09
