NetworkManager 0.8.1 does have Bluetooth DUN support, so the version should be fine. However, you'll want to make sure you have gnome-bluetooth installed, and then you'll want to re-pair your phone and at the end of the pairing process, check the "Access the internet with my phone" box, which makes the device show up in NetworkManager. http://blogs.gnome.org/dcbw/2009/07/10/unwire-with-networkmanager/ If that doesn't work, getting some logs from NetworkManager (usually in /var/log/messages or /var/log/daemon.log) woudl be necessary to figure out what's going wrong.
