Would This BlueTooth Device Work With My G4 MDD?

[2112st]

On a Facebook board I'm at, I asked this question and someone posted the following device. I'm also including a screengrab of my G4's specs. Would this device work? I have a BlueTooth keyboard I want to use with it.

The A1016 is Bluetooth 1.1 (5.1 should be backward compatible), so it should work in theory, as long as MacOS can see that Bluetooth dongle. What versions of MacOS will you be running?

Not sure if os9 will see that dongle without some kind of driver.

This Soundbot dongle is plug and play in all of my Powermac G3 & G4s (I own many of this unit specifically for this purpose). The caveat is I use various flavors of Tiger and Leopard OSX and don’t run os9, so am unsure if they work natively there. I would venture a guess that they don’t without a driver due to os9s age. I’d test it but unfortunately my office is torn apart and packed up in boxes while I repaint/carpet that room and it’s adjoining bedroom.
