Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Beware before installing with Vista
The product works (eventually) and is low priced and is tiny. But, before you install it, please consider the following. Customer care by Iogear is horrendous.

The first hurdle is bad instructions. Step 1 for Vista says you MUST insert the device. Then step 8 says DO NOT insert the device. 8 is correct, by the way.

Still, the included ver. 5 drivers do not work with Vista. When you contact the vendor for help, they'll tell you where the ver. 6 drivers reside. They're marked ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Does the job nicely!
Works exactly as expected. I was hoping for a bit more range, but it's really not bad at all. I can't use my bluetooth headset to Skype upstairs with out some breakup, but anywhere downstairs it will "talk" with my 1st floor laptop just fine. Data transfers that are not time sensitive may work even better. Barely sticks out so it's great for just leaving it in there. Works perfectly with my old Dell and my new Wind, and has no issues at all with XP. My "super tech" friend had to have one right away after ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent micro sized bluetooth adapter
I got this adapter to use with my new Acer Aspire ONE netbook (one of its few shortcoming being the lack of built-in bluetooth). WOW, is this device tiny! It fits very snugly into a free usb port -- it won't fall or slip out easily, and you can't even see any of the metal from the usb plug -- its just a tiny blue wart on the side of your machine. You'll hardly know its there! The seems to be little chance you could snag anything on it or break it off like with a larger dongle. The blue LED is easily ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Works Great!
I bought this product to use in an old iMac computer i use occasionally. I plugged it into the back of the computer and by the time i looked back at the screen it was already setup and working. The it took about 30 seconds to set up my keyboard and mouse. It couldn't have been easier! I can't yet attest to the durability of the product but it seemed like a quality product.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A device that actually works
Just as advertised this device works without flaw. Installation is a breeze and setting up multiple devices has never been easier. I would reccommend this product again and again.
