Good overall bluetooth adapter that comes with CD installation. It works on my personal computer. I got this bluetooth adapter to go wireless (tired of wired devices). I got it connected to my devices without too much problems.

Pros
- It is small as a flash drive
- It accepts of all of my bluetooth-enabled devices (stereo headset, speaker, and cellphone)
- Once the device is paired with this adapter, it is easier to reconnect/re-pair to that device again.

Cons
- Small (may lose sight of it)
- Does not come with keychain or a hook (you know.. to hang on to it)
- Not exactly hassle-free to connect/pair with new devices. (You need a little bit of critical/analytical thinking and patient)
- It only work on Windows, but not linux (therefore I only used it for my Window XP computers)
- It may not work on every computer. (I’m struggling to make it work on my work computer like Sometimes it won’t connect and Sometimes it pair, but no sound come out of my bluetooth speaker/headset. At this time, I’m still working on it.)
- Its frequency is 2.4GHz (may create some interference for some devices)

On the whole it is a good package. I still find Word to be sometimes an infuriating piece of S/W when you are imbedding photos into text the insertion is often anything but graceful. If you insert a photo before clicking the enter key some 20 times or so it will just overlay the photo and cover up some previously placed images — drives me nuts as it is such a stupid mistake to have made when they wrote the S/W. Yeah, I know it takes MS about ten tries before it gets things right (e.g., Vista).
