WMWiFirouter 1.60 - no more bluetooth still?

I as many of users here use WMWiFiRouter software for tethering(current newest version is 1.60). Simple to use, undetectable by provider as tether and gives you options of connecting your desktop/laptop to net via your mobile device using any of these three options:

1) USB direct connect(cable method) - best since it charges your TP2 while you tethering with downside of it being wired connection

2) WiFi (turns TP2 into wireless router with more than one simultaneous connection possible)

3) BlueTooth (same as #2 but via bluetooth)

Well since version 1.50 number 3 is no longer available. Here is from their website:
HTC Touch Pro 2
AT&T Tilt 2
HTC Rhodium
Sprint Touch Pro 2
Support from version 1.50. Sharing using Bluetooth not currently supported.

v1.35 still works great with all 3 available and interestingly enough if you have original TP #3 is available to you. Anyone knows whats the reason for singling out TP2 for removing BT connect? Has anyone find a way around(do not suggest using another soft as i am stuck with WMWiFirouter for over 2 years on different devices). When v1.50 was released i was hoping its just temp fluke but 1.60 is out now and still no #3.

I guess i will stick with bugless v1.35 for now since i dont really see any new features added in newer versions, until the solution is found at least.

Maybe Morose has found that the new HTC Bluetooth Manager in the Rhodium causes conflicts with WMWifiRouters ability to hook the Bluetooth stack reliably. And they have disabled that function per device model to prevent a poor user experience?

like i said v1.35 works perfectly on my Sprint TP2 with bluetooth, that why i am puzzled what has changed and why they decided to remove that feature. Could it be some sort of legal problem?
