Bluno with updated firmware as Bluetooth LE master?

Hello,

I want to connect a push-button via Bluetooth LE to an Arduino and connect the latter as a keyboard to any computer. I like the description of the Bluno very much and wonder if this is the appropriate device for my task.

Specifically, I would like to know if the Bluno (and Bluno nano) uses the 16u2 for USB connectivity (I understand that this is required to run the device as a HID keyboard).
If I can update its firmware (as described here [url=http://wiki.sgmk-ssam.ch/index.php?title=Arduino_Uno_R3_as_HID]http://wiki.sgmk-ssam.ch/index.php?title=Arduino_Uno_R3_as_HID[/url]), while still maintaining Bluetooth LE capabilities.
And then run the Arduino as a Master for Bluetooth LE clients while communicating via USB to a computer.

Has anyone tried already? Is this possible?
Thanks a lot in advance!

it's feasible.though the BLE uses the TX/RX of the bluno/ble link+uno,( so please upload your sketch to your board before connecting the bluetooth). the board supports communication through BLE while through USB to ur computer.
