Hi,
I've two laptop. One of them Fujitsu-Siemens and the other Acer
TimelineX and Arch Linux is installed on both of them. There are some
differences between running same programs because of hardware issues.
Anyway, i dont know why there is no Bluetooth device option in
NetworkManager on Acer TimelineX but it works perfect on
Fujitsu-Siemens. Maybe versions are different because Arch Linux on
Acer TimelineX is more up-to-date. i'm almost sure that the problem
doesnt depends on hardware because when i connect Dial-up Networking
(DUN) everything goes ok..

so there is actually a Bluetooth device but NetworkManager cant handle
it, there is no option.

NetworkManager 0.8.1 does have Bluetooth DUN support, so the version
should be fine. However, you'll want to make sure you have
gnome-bluetooth installed, and then you'll want to re-pair your phone
and at the end of the pairing process, check the Access the internet
with my phone box, which makes the device show up in NetworkManager.

If that doesn't work, getting some logs from NetworkManager (usually
in /var/log/messages or /var/log/daemon.log) woudl be necessary to
figure out what's going wrong.
