public interface IBlaubotDevice
extends java.lang.Comparable<IBlaubotDevice>

Abstraction for blaubot devices. A blaubot device is in most cases a simple wrapper class above a unique address specific to its related IBlaubotAdapter uniquely identified by the String retrievable via it's getUniqueDeviceID() method. In most cases this will be the MAC address. Please implement the equals and hashcode methods properly. These methods should be bound to ONE blaubot instance (i.e. by comparing the UUID or smthg else).
