i'm sorry to say you are completely wrong but the build-in bluetooth is an optional INTERNAL module exclusiveley available as a BTO from Apple. You can't add it later until they will decide to sell it. 

If you want  to get bluetooth for your mac after, you will need to buy a USB dongle like every other mac or pc as Robert said.

You should double-read before posting and flaming......
