How does one change the MAC address with a USB bluetooth adapter? (I
understand that you can't change the actual value in the firmware, but
isn't there a way to modify it in software, the way many Ethernet
cards can?)
I ask because I have a cheap Bluetooth adapter ("Integrated System
Solution Corp. KY-BT100 Bluetooth Adapter" according to lsusb) that
uses that MAC address, too. It works for talking to my Palm Treo, but
it'd be nice to be able to set it to a more conventional, legal value.
