blueman as default bluetooth client in Gnome

[ajmctaggart]

Absolutely! That was another nice point of blueman.  It seems that
whatever one wishes to accomplish regarding bluetooth; the
instructions seem to start with installing blueman.  I really think
it's a better solution overall for the Desktop.

  I just tried blueman, and I liked its integration with NetworkManager

  for enable GPRS/CDMA connection over bluetooth !
