I have old MP and I'd like to test magic mouse with it, so any suggestions what stick to buy.

I want Class1 (100mW ~ 100m range = headphones all over the house) and at least 2.1+EDR.

People have had success with the d link.

I just bought the cheapest one at frys and it works fine on my 08.

Edit: saw you want 2.1, so nm.

D-Links are also only Class 2...

Is it really that there's no class1 bt-sticks with OsX support?

Hmmm,
found one with class1:

but it's still 2.0...
2.0 specs are from 2004, 2.1 was adopted 2007, pretty slow adoption rate, I guess...
Where do they dig up those ancient chips, are they still in production?

Once again, this seems to be a thread where I*m talking to myself...spooky...

But if there would be somebody else in the same needs for a good bt-stick, I just found one with OsX support:

I confirmed OsX compability from Belkin's support.
