This works fine, but make sure you have the latest Bluez libs. And make sure you have a
kernel at least 2.6.20 vintage. If not, then when you're running two simultaneous commands to
two different Bluetooth devices, you may get a kernel oops.
Otherwise, its easy enough to write a multi-threaded application that addresses multiple dongles.
And it works very well.
