Rating: - Got the right item, no problems
I was hesitant to order these because previous reviews said that the vendor kept shipping the wrong product. After I noticed that the product is now shipped by Amazon rather than the vendor, I decided to take a chance.
I'm glad I did, because my only other option was to buy much longer USB extensions. Even when you coil them neatly, they are still in the way. All I am trying to do is gain access to the USB ports on the back of my machine so that I can reach them from the front without ... Read More
Rating: - Great for use with Flip Mino & Flip MinoHD
I bought a couple of these to use with the Flip MinoHD video recorder.

This give you that little extra reach when you have other items plugging into adjacent usb ports and can't fit the Flip in there.

Exactly as advertised and just what I needed. The cables were fine. Unfortunately, shipping cost 3 X the cost of the items, $5.94 shipping for $2.00 worth of cables, for what probably cost $2.50, tops, for postage and jiffy bag.
Rating: - Product is as adverstised

It is rated for USB 2.0 and so far works fine for me. And a ... Read More
Rating: - Perfect for Macbook Air
This is perfect for connecting bulky USB devices to the Macbook Air. We use it with an SD card reader that is a little too large for the cramped USB connector and the short length makes it convenient to carry around.
This cable is only useful for extending the reach of a USB port and is functionally the same as USB extension cables included with USB memory sticks.
