Ok, did a bit of searching around and here is what I could find for you.

USB Park Mode
The main advantages for using Park mode over sniff mode are that it leads to reduced power consumption
and allows more than 7 device to be connected to a master. It also gives more time for the parked slave to
participate on different piconets. (this is from one of my searches)
