[G5] Waiting for my 1.8 Ghz. G5.

[Tim Collier]

Did you all see my post on the bluetooth update from Apple's Support site?
Installing it solved all of the problems you are talking about.  I can wake
the iMac by just clicking the mouse or tapping the keyboard.  The batteries
still read as fully charge after having been connected for over a month.  I
highly recommend it.
