Tethering over Bluetooth

Hello,

I have been able to successfully set up tethering over USB and Bluetooth on my macbook pro (10.5.7).
However, I have come to realise an annoying bug.

Whenever I put my Macbookpro to sleep (or deep sleep), after that the option to "connect to iphone" at the Bluetooth menu bar appears greyed out. The only way I have to fix this is to reboot my mac altogether.

Anyone found a fix or know if Apple is aware? or am I the only one?

MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo Santa Rosa 2.4 ghz 4gb ram 160gb hdd + iMac 2.2ghz, Mac OS X (10.5)

Same issue here on my older style 2.5GHz MBP running 10.5.7

i tried everything else, and then finally (FINALLY) decided to reboot the computer (after at least a dozen iPhone reboots and deleting/adding iPhone as BT device....

Haven't noticed anyone else see this, though.

Is your iPhone jailbreaked? Mine is. Not sure if that plays into the equation or not.
