there will be no difference when using Bluetooth 1.1 or 1.2 devices. If
you like you can even connect to a Bluetoth 1.0b device and will see no
difference.

We already support the EDR extension for Bluetooth 1.2.

What I know is that BlueZ supports every USB dongle that is out on the
market at the moment. But I haven't seen so far any dongle with EDR
support.

Yes.

You are welcome.
