* OvisLink BT 201-202 (tested with latest Widcomm and Bluesoleil stack) - will recognise Wiimote, but won't get past the pairing stage

* Quatech BTA-B01U (Broadcom chip w/antenna bundled with Widcomm stack) Recognized Wiimote but won't pair, and BlueSoleil won't recognize the dongle.

+

* Rocketfish Micro Bluetooth USB Adapter - Recognized Wiimote. Insists on a key # for pairing and won't allow you to skip and assign one dynamically.

* Sandberg bluetooth link

* Targus Rechargeable Bluetooth media notebook mouse software version 1.00.01(just bought it and Vista cannot see it. Targus software out of date no plans for a patch)

:* UPDATE (9/30/08) This dongle has been tested and works perfectly with [http://www.bluecove.org/ BlueCove] on Windows XP and [http://sourceforge.net/projects/avetanabt/ AvetanaBT] on Linux Redhat.

* Trust BT-2400p (Ultra Small) (Broadcom 2045 2.0). With its bundled software the Wiimote is seen but not paired in any way. Probably this will be done with some special settings.

:* UPDATE (4/05/09 and 7/06/09) After some further tries actually this device WORKS with BT 1.1 old win stack (even if you have also installed BT 2.0 of Toshiba at the same time) BUT you must remember, even once you have had it paired at least one time, to always use the "Add device" command, even when the wii icon is visualized among the previosly recognized devices. If you repeat the pairing procedure -KEEPING IN MIND TO RE-PRESS THE 2 WIIMOTE PAIRING BUTTONS (or the single one on the back) IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE 4 BLUE LEDS WILL TURN OFF STILL WHILE DURING THE PROCESS- you'll be always able to finally connect to the wiimote via GlovePie. The regedit key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSetXXX\Enum\BTHENUM\{00001124-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb}_VID&0002057e_PID&0306" will continue to add +1 known devices, but my experience left room to at least 50 instances without futher problems, and if there will be a limit we'll always be able to restore a previous registry backup with a smaller number in this particular key (manually in realtime you can't because the key is locked by the system).
