Bluetooth problems and COM 40

I have the Dell Bluetooth 350 (or whatever model number it is.... I have an I6000). I've installed the Toshiba Bluetooth stack, and am trying to set up a dial-up connection with my Microsoft smartphone (Moto MPx220 on Cingular). I can open the Bluetooth Settings window, and make a new connection. However, when I do this, it installs a modem on COM 40! COM 40! Microsoft Activesync doesn't work with COM ports this high, neither do many other programs. The Bluetooth Local COM utility in Control Panel shows 8 Toshiba BT ports (7, 10-14, 20, 21) for various things. How can I force a lower COM port when setting the phone up as a modem?! There has to be a way to get a COM port <8, since I only have one other COM port that isn't BT relative (a landline modem on COM 3). I need this to work with MS Activesync and I need to set this up a dial-up network connection with a COM port <8. Thanks!

By the way, if I choose to "add" a port in the Bluetooth Local COM utility, it has no bearing on the port that is set up in the Bluetooth Settings - New Connection program. No matter what I do, it sets up a modem of COM 40 (or COM 41, etc).
