Yeah, and the manager's 'WirelessEnabled' property will be FALSE. Basically, UNAVAILABLE means the device cannot be activated right now due to hardware constraints, like rfkill or no cable plugged in. The device will go from UNMANAGED to UNAVAILABLE when the system settings service has had a chance to figure out of the device is managed or not, and then from UNAVAILABLE to DISCONNECTED after the rfkill state has been checked.
