Advantages: Compact and Portability Disadvantages: Price
This USB Power Adapter is a must accessory to have if you have any kinds of iPods. As you would know, when you buy an iPod, you will only receive the iPod itself and the link cable. This means the only way you can charge the iPod is through the computer. However, this is disadvantage for many reasons since you would need to make sure the computer is on when charging.

This USB Power Adapter deals with all of the charging problems and many others. The size of the power adapter is very compact, with its dimension of 4cm by 4cm (estimate and could be different when bought from different country). It is also not so heavy for portable use.

Advantages: Simple to set up and use Disadvantages: Software is not the greatest

This USB adapter was bought to connect to my Belkin wireless router meaning that I now had a wireless network consisting only of Belkin hardware.
--Whats in the box--
On opening the box, there were no real surprises. There was the USB adapter, a stand which would allow you to place the adapter on your desk if you didnt want to have it plugged directly into the back of your PC, the antenna, a quick installation guide and a CD which contained the drivers and a full manual.
--Installation--
On reading the quick installation guide, it was apparent that the software had to be installed before the adapter was plugged in. The reason for this was because, when the hardware ...
The AMIQ provides the primary interface between an attached device (KVM switch or PS/2, SUN or USB server) and the AMX system. It provides all Keep Alive, keyboard emulation, DDC (Digital Data Channel) and AMX support in a server-powered convenient cable format. This eliminates the need for extra rack space, power outlets or additional cables. For ease of installation, each AMIQ has a factory-assigned unique number that identifies the attached server within the system. The connection between the AMX system and the AMIQ is via industry standard UTP cabling.
