Hello
I just bought these dongles:
- ednet btVer 1.2 (class2, 40 meters) Firmware 20.3.009
- acer btVer 1.2 (class1, 100 meters) Firmware 10.3.009
Both work just fine with bluez and are from Broadcom Corporation.
Marcel, as much as i've seen, you no longer have a list of supported
devices... so i think you don't need any data, right?
I actually do have a question: I read much more about csr dongles than
broadcom's in the list. Are broadcom's known to be bader or are there other
disadvantages?
Is the firmware updateable too? I'm a little bit worried that there's such
a big version-difference of the firmware...
regards
Marco

I still maintain the features document and I think about moving
everything into a database. So please send in "hciconfig -a" and the
content of /proc/bus/usb/devices.

I think that Broadcom/Zeevo is catching up, but actually at the moment
the CSR chips are way ahead of everything else.

It maybe is upgradeable, but I don't know how. Don't worry so much about
the version thing. I still don't know what these values actually mean,
because the decoding is derived from the Widcomm stack version display.
Broadcom was never helpful when it comes to Linux support while CSR
always helped out.
Regards
Marcel
