Iphone as bluetooth remote control

Hi guys,
I tried to google for the answer but I've got too many useless results.

There is any app on the iphone that can allow it to control a remote computer through a bluetooth connection?
I've seen plenty of application like AirMouse and similar that do what I want but I'm not happy using WiFi to connect the two devices.

Mac Mini 2009, Mac OS X (10.6.4), Iphone 4 16GB

I found an app, "air mouse" in the app store. It works over wifi, not bluetooth. There is a free version and a 1.99 version. The free version couldn't find my mac, but there was no problem when I downloaded the pay version. It operates the mouse on your computer so you can hook up computer to TV and operate mouse on the iphone. It also has a keyboard. After working out the kinks I was You Tubing from my couch! Yay!

I have the same question. I found an app, Remote.com or something like that, downloaded the .99 version and it couldn't fine my MBA. When I looked for the "website" on my mac, I got a popup saying I had won millions of dollars all I had to do was click!! Something smelled funny so I deleted the app. I'd be interested to know whether it works. It could be that it didn't find my MBA, because it's kinda old and I need to free up some space on it. . . still, I have my suspicions.
