Hi,

    Is the exact way the pairing behavior works specified in the  
Bluetooth spec anywhere?  I've noticed that mouse paring at least on  
the Intel iMac (first gen) doesn't always seem to work - it won't  
pick up a connection after sleep sometimes - or even when it's  
"looking for mice" and the mouse is on, and has had it's reset button  
pressed so should be sending out signals.  And it's annoying that  
almost ANY little knock on the mouse will wake the computer (if  
set).  I know, a mouse move is SUPPOSED to do that, but how do you  
deal with cats on your table then?  "Blutooth-Enabled Shock  
Collars" (TM - not yet patented, but will be as soon once I get about  
6 grand and hire an army of lawyers at a grand a piece..)
