iPhone/iPod Touch do NOT have open Bluetooth.
Apple has locked BT  to force companies who want devices to connect with iP/iPT
to build "Made for iPhone" (MFI) device. This of coarse means company making such devices must

-Accepting a contract with Apple that allows Apple to disable the Bluetooth device at their whim
-Purchasing a semiconductor chip (available only from Apple) to include in every device
-Can't make the device for resell i.e. every customer making an MFI device must deal directly with Apple
i.e. you can't make MFI device for resale by another company or brand.

If you need to connect to a Bluetooth device from iP/iPT consider the WiSnap device
(or BlueSnap to WiSnap bridge)
