That is incorrect. Broadcom makes a lot of chips, including bluetooth radios. Back before Broadcom acquired Widcomm you usually saw chipsets by Cambridge Silicon Radio (CSR) that licensed the Widcomm stack but that's no longer the case, from what I've seen. The Widcomm/Broadcom stack, beginning with v6, no longer works with anything but Broadcom radios.
