yes, it is a Broadcom chip based device. you need to download firmware 
before you can use it.

yes, that is correct

yes. that is also correct

yes, that is what is should look like.

well, your Belkin adapter was initialized successfully. everything so far
looks
normal to me. BTW you do not have to have debug level so high :)

i do not see any problem. you have asked local device to perform an "inquiry",
i.e. discover other Bluetooth devices in range. what local device tells you
is that there is no devices in range. Note: the device can be put into the
"hidden" mode where it will ignore "inquiry" requests. this "hidden" mode is
default on almost all devices. make sure you make your other device (i.e.
cell phone, PDA, etc.) is in "discoverable" (or sometimes called "visible")
mode. once you put other device in "discoverable" mode, run "inquiry" again
and you should see responses.

thanks,
max
