Yes, I have it. And the bluetooth service is started on boot. But it is 
not enough. Without the additional hidd service I have to pair the mouse 
each time I boot, which is really annoying. :)

With FC6 and F7 the hidd startup script was part of the bluez-utils 
packages and it has mysteríously vanished in F8.
