Rating: - Tiny and easy to use
Don't have much beyond the subject to say. The adapter is miniscule and extends out less than my battery pack on my laptop. I leave it in all the time when stuffing my laptop into my backpack and haven't had any issues. One caveat is that the adapter does not have a great range. I start having issues when I'm about 8-10' away or don't have a clear line of sight. Ah, the software is fairly easy to use but can sometimes be slow to respond (due to software issues or perhaps the adapter's responsitivity). ... Read More
Rating: - Flawless
This device works as advertised for my purpose, which is to connect my Samsung Hue via BitPim. I've used the adapter on two systems (both running XP SP3), and it works flawlessly, installing the native XP drivers (no need to install the much more resource-intensive application that ships with the adapter). No hassle at all: switch on the Hue's Bluetooth discovery mode, switch the PC Connection setting to Bluetooth, and the devices communicate without a problem. Then, when you're not using it, just disable ... Read More
Rating: - Better than expected
I've bought this adapter for it's compactness, but I wasn't expecting good signal reception, because it's too small to accommodate antenna. But I was wrong. The signal with this adapter is stronger than of one which came with my notebook. I'm very satisfied with this product, because it's performing better than I expected.
Rating: - Tiny, Works Perfectly
I bought this item because I was tired of searching for a cable every time I wanted to synch my Treo 680 to my laptop. I just plugged it in, Windows detected it and it worked perfectly the first time. There are rare occasions when I have to remove and reinsert the adapter because my Treo cannot connect to it. But otherwise it functions so perfectly that if not for its bright, blue LED I'd forget that it's there.
Rating: - OK, but difficult to setup.
I bought this since I could not get the bluetooth on my Apple MacBook Pro to work with Windows Vista (all other drivers seem to work fine except that one). Had to download drivers (3-in CD would not work in slot-load drive) and after several failed attempts to install gave up. THEN I tried installing off the CD-ROM in my Dell Inspirom 1520 with Windows XP Home (did not get the Bluetooth pre-installed). I had to install three times before it finally worked. Once installed it seems to work great, even got ... Read More
