While I was looking around for Bluetooth implementations I found that 
FreeBSD has one based on NetGraph. I've never heard of NetGraph, but reading 
about it made me very interested. I posted it to Haiku's forum, but I think 
it's worth repeating.

Dunno if it's availabled in the other *BSD's as well but I was impressed by 
the modular design (and the well written man-page).
