Hmm, strange, I have bluetooth mouse and it works under both Windows and
FreeBSD on my noteboot without re-pairing every boot to other OS.

I've not done anything special about it, just pair it once under
FreeBSD, then once under Windows.

What's the difference ? "Magically" it have generated same key for both
OSes ?

(my mouse is Logitech MX900)
