With GSM phones, you send SMSs by issuing certain special AT commands over the phone's serial ("modem") interface. With Bluetooth, you get a serial port device (ttyS... or something) and you use it just as you would use a phone connected thru a serial cable (e.g. with gnokii or by issuing the AT commands directly).
