Update: Apple has broken bluetooth PAN. Exhibit A. Exhibit B. Exhibit C. In every computer they've released since the macbook air.

I'm on the train now. Connected and got 10 to 15 second ping times with 30% packet loss. I plugged in my $12 compusa firesale bluetooth dongle and re-paired, and it gets 136ms ping times with 1% packet loss.

The Ol' Powerbook could handle the same phone just fine, and it seems to be widespread over multiple phone manufacturers.

I've got my Genius appointment set for Tuesday morning, I'll report back how it goes.
