What about combining public key authentication with the bluetooth pairing method (the host writes a PIN, the client is asked for the PIN, the two PINs must match)? This way if the user is too lazy to check the public key we reduce greatly the attacker's possibilities. Using this approach we'd have to face the fact that a lazy user could write "1234" as a PIN, too: the host side UI for writing the PIN should warn the user that things like "1234" are not such a good idea.
