I was searching google and came across these two threads,
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-bluetooth/2006-September/000788.html
http://www.nabble.com/j2me-bluetooth-app-using-freebsd-bluetooth-stack-t2356546.html

So it looked like it was possible...

usbdevs -dv shows:
port 1 addr 2: full speed, power 100 mA, config 1, 
BCM92035DGROM(0x0850), Broadcom(0x22b8), rev 1.09
    ubt0

If you need anything else, I'll do what I can.

Thanks
Jimmie
