Connects fine to my Motorola V3, HP iPaq h6315, Sony Ericsson Bluetooth headset. However it requires CD software to manage its connection unlike my old Bluetooth dongle. Its reception also drops quickly as you are moving away from it.

Pros: work perfect with my sony mobile phone, now I can copy ringtones, photographs, themes, etc without a usb cable...

it´s very small...

fit´s nice in my computer´s usb...

looks well made...

hardware and software drivers in windows XP find it without any problems...

Cons: the software included it´s very out-of-date, but it´s very easy to find a newer version on the internet...

don´t have a very wide range...

Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: if you want a cheap bluetooth adapter this is a good choice, if you want a wide range and fastest maybe you need something different...

Pros: *Great Bluetooth USB adapter
*Works great with the generic Conwise Bluetooth adapter driver that you can grab from windows update
*The provided copy of Bluesoleil WORKS.

Cons: *The provided copy of Bluesoleil while works, does is only version 2.6, and I have an unusual feeling that the provided copy is illegitimate.
*The board kind of wobbles within the enclosure, but not enough to effect usability of the adapter.

Other Thoughts: *Hey, Wait a second, Go look at the Board for SKU #7. They are EXACTLY THE SAME!
*Had problems getting the dongle working with my Wii Remote, but this is most likely me. I ordered two of these adapters and gave one to a friend, He got everything working fine with his adapter.

Bottomline: Great adapter, Cheap, Does the job, if you need a bluetooth dongle, buy it.

Ownership verified by DX Great BT, easy to install and use.

Pros: This adapter works perfectly for me. It works great with the included Bluesoleil on my WinXP machine with no Service Packs installed. This BT found my ear piece easily and it works great with Skype. The range is fantastic I can go almost anywhere in my 900sqft Apt and stay connected to it. This isn’t the lastest BT standard but the included software worked and the hardware worked, overall I am happy. I have ordered one for my pops, but he has the latest updates to XP so I will not be using Bluesoleil, but the MS stack instead :-) BTW dx is great, they packaged it well and the BT arrived 8 days after ordering and I am in NJ.

Cons: None, it worked out of the box with the included CD.

Pros: I was skeptical at first when reading some of these reviews. I purchased this item for use with my old phones so I could transfer off contact lists via BT. I popped it into my laptop and vista installed it right away. After toggling some settings it recognized and synced with my iphone immediately. This is really handy to have, especially at this price.

Cons: Only con I can think of is the driver cd might be really easy to lose and damage since there is no cd case included. Backup the cd somewhere safe just in case.

Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: Absolutely worth every penny!
