Class file with manufacturer names. Ideally it should be part of the main BT ActiveX control.

Hi,

To get local manufacturer id we can use Radio.Manufacturer, what if we want to get the remote manufacturer id?
There is not such property named "device.manufacturer".
The only way I can think of is to get the remote manufacturer name by its mac address. Is there any other way?
