Firstly, thanks for making this, much nicer than the bunch of scripts I
had previously.

Second: Any clues for non-intrepid users (Bluez 4.x, the one that seems
to break all the previous APIs and has no documentation). Findings so
far appear to be:

karmic: Works out of the box, just set up service in the bluetooth
applet and enjoy, very nice (modulo the alpha status of karmic).

jaunty: The bluetooth stack is really sad; pand does not exist and
bluetoothd will not run /etc/bluetooth/network.conf defined scripts. My
best option seems to be to manually run a script that takes pan0 up and
down. Any clues on the correct way to handle this greatly appreciated.
