Yeah unfortunately it still works that way. Supposedly, the drivers are locked to whatever specific dongle you buy that it comes with, and the only way to update them is to either hope that the website of the dongle manufacturer posts updated drivers (Belkin is very good at posting the latest and greatest on asap basis) or updating through Broadcom the way you said, and that only works half the time. But it's all good because I'd be happy to get away from Broadcom. Their stack seems to offer the most BT services, but for my purposes at this point, I only care about a working handsfree solution. If the D-Link works flawlessly for you, then the D-Link I will be purchasing.
