Review Date: 06/19/11
Cons: Somewhat difficult to unplug from USB ports due to small size. MIR

Pros: Cheap, small.
Comment:
First, I hate MIRs. But I will always send them in if I happen to get a product with a MIR. The only way to get companies to stop doing MIRs is by getting everyone to send them in, and make it unprofitable to run MIRs.This product on sale essentially costs a few bucks after taxes, postage, time and eventually your MIR.The product works great, has no issues, and works fine from the back of my tower, on the floor beside my desk to the keyboard on the desk. 4/5 stars only because of MIR. Otherwise would have been 5/5.

Pros: brand name, quality
Comment:
Bought it on a sale mainly to connect a remote and my PS3 controller to the pc, and it does the job perfectly without any interference. But i don't think the retail price of $15+ is worth it, if its on sale for $9 or less then it's definitely worth it.

Pros: Work fine, inexpensive when on sale.
Comment:
Even at the regular price, these would be fine. I purchased 2 when on sale to use a Wii controller on a couple PCs.Windows 7 recognizes the Dongle and automatically installs the software. The Wii controller was found with no issues, and was easily set up within about a minute.I have also used them to transfer pictures from a cell phone with no problems at all.I don't know how anybody could live without bluetooth.

Cons: Very Tiny, easy to loseManual has around 50 different lanugages

Pros: What do you expect? Its bluetoothPlug and Play (w7)Manual has 50 different lanugages
Comment:
Well, the only reason I got this was to play wii games with 16x anti alaising and to use the ps3 controller and it works well just as it should. There isnt anything remarkable nor is there anything bad about it. I am also using the wii remote to ply super meat boy, works really well. Wii remote is the only way to beat the game imo. 360 controller hurts my thumb after a bit and the idk about the ps3 cotroller. I can also using my iphone for internet via this, I dont need the iphone interent and my laptop has bluetooth but I thought I should mention it anyways. Good buy. Recommended to anyone that doesnt have bluetooth.

Does exactly what it should. Easy to connect, nice compact design. I tried to connect my Blackberry and my PS3 headset. Works like a charm. Don't have any problems and both devices are recognized fast. Definitely recommend especially when it's on sale.

Cons: takes a while to 'wake up'

Pros: Low price, from a recognized manufacturer for driver support
Comment:
I had a cheap Hong Kong adapter which worked well on the third Tuesday of the month if it was a cloudy day and you ran XP. I bought this one to run with the Targus BT mouse. While I found it installed easily into Win7 and I could get it to talk to the mouse, it would take awhile to 'wake up' if you left it overnight, and sometimes a complete reboot was necessary. When on sale consider grabbing one if you are already shipping other tiems anyway, otherwise the shipping will cost more than the item.

Cons: Some compatibility issues with WIN 7

Pros: Cheap, fits in a USB slot on my computer and allows me to sync my blackberry
Comment:
This is a great product for the price NCIX offers it at on sale. I don't know if I would pay full price, but it works pretty good. The software that it comes with is not fully supported by Windows 7 and the update  doesn't do much. Takes a little playing with to get it to work. However, on sale, this product is a good value. It's small profile makes it ideal to plug into a spare USB port and turn your PC or laptop into a bluetooth capable device.

Pros: Has paired with everything I've tried with.
Comment:
I've used this to send small files from computers within the house and cell phones as well. The range is pretty good. The only issue is that I have yet to be able to use my computer as a speakerphone with these devices. I have three of these exact products on each of my three computers.

Cons: Fairly cheap pricing when on saleToo much useless packagingWorks for the Wiimote

Pros: WorksPricing
Comment:
In all honesty, I bought this thing for experimentation to feed my curiosity. This thing works, so if you're having issues with it when using default drivers and such, use the ones from Broadcomm (there's a thread about this, but I knew it before it was posted). Priced nicely on sales, but probably couldn't beat the Boxing Week Sale price as it was the lowest I saw all year. When you get the thing, it's like vacuum sealed and it comes with way too much garbage like an instruction manual with like at least a dozen different languages and a disc. As to feed my curiosity, it works with a Wiimote when you have the correct drivers, so if you have one of those around, you can use it with your PC, but I have not tried this with PS3... yet.Overall, nice purchase and if you didn't catch it, yes, it will work with your cellphone and can transfer files between your phone and PC.

Bought this to add bluetooth to my desktop. Lets me transfer files more easily from my phone, and for 8 bucks why not. Wouldn't pay full price for it, but on sale it opens up the option of a bluetooth headset and mouse/keyboard.

Worked on Snow Leopard, and Windows 7. Was using it to pair a Macintosh keyboard, but then realized the said keyboard was too old to be paired.. (I was using a Hackintosh)Works well, you can hide it easily in back of case.

Bought 3 of these for use with Skype on three separate machines. Have them all paired perfectly with my BT headset, clear audio both sending and receiving. Running MAC OS X I have also done BT filesharing between machines, and have successfully tethered my internet connection through my iPhone using BT. For the price, its a must have if you make Skype calls with your computer.

Cons: Price is too low !!!

Pros: No driver installation in Win 7.Work at the first try. Added the mouse in the BT dongle list. Then, detect my Mx-1000 mouse and once i turn it on, it is detected automatically and ready to work !!!
Comment:
What else can i say. I needed an other BT receiver because the native logitech dongle died. So i try this and it work as expected. I'm 100% satisfied. I just use it to drive my BT mouse nothing else. At $8, it's difficult to go wrong.

I bought a cheap USB Bluetooth dongle at eBay for less than $5, and that thing was just a piece of junk. After reading reviews here I decided to give this a try and it picks up all the devices that little eBay junk couldn't pickup.I'm using this to pair my PC with a bluetooth headset while I'm on treadmil so I don't have to turn the speakers so loud. Haven't had any dropout of any kind yet.

Cons: nothing the price is good

Pros: Was half the price (8$). Respond to bluetooth standard. Small enough to stay on a laptop or desktop all the time.
Comment:
It's small, it's not pricey and it works. Just ask yourself if you need it and for what. My laptop didn't have laptop and I just bought it because it wasn't pricey and I can't buy a single item I feel cheap so I add this to my cart. Not that useful but for the moment I use it for my cell phone and maybe I'll use it for a PS3 controller.

Great buy when it's on sale, replaced an old bluetooth 1.1 usb and saw the old one with huge by comparison. i don't really use bluetooth very often but it's nice that i can just stick this in and forget about it until i do. at 7.99 sale price what's not to like.
