The methods depend on the programming language, but basically you communicate using SDP (service discovery), OBEX (object exchange, used for files). RFCOMM (stream connection) and L2CAP (packets connection) protocols. In Symbian world, you use Bluetooth via sockets.

Bluetooth devices address is unique for each device, and you can distinguish the remote device by it.
You can establish the connection in two alternative way:
-direct connection by Bluetooth address (either hard-coded or entered by the user)
-device discovery (& optional service discovery) & connection by selecting the desired remote device.

Usually the latter option is better.

For BTP2P example, please have a look at the documentation in the Series 60 SDK (Go to Series 60 examples section -> Bluetooth Point-to-point exmaple in the SDK Help)

In that example, RNotifier is used to launch a list of found remote device of which the user has to select the one to connect to.
