I tried again, this time with a "passcode" of 9999 to make the typing go faster. Now, instead of "Authentication failed", I get "Device resources exceeded". Also tried a single digit passcode of "9". It now seems random whether I get "resources exceeded" or "Authentication failed". Come on, someone out there, either there is something I don't understand about BT "pairing" or there is a bug.
