Re: Bluetooth - Hardware vs Software
Jonathon edr affects only data rate. there are some low-level features that bt2.0 brings, but I'm not aware of any profiles that specifically require bt2.0 features.

Brad Thanks for the response, but if it had not included edr, then would there be profiles that it could not support? That is more my underlying question.

Re: Bluetooth - Hardware vs Software
Johathon Yes it is a bluetooth 2.0+extended data rate adapter (strangely there are a few bt2.0 devices without edr) The available profiles are determined by the software stack.
