the cable that will last a lifetime

Advantages: strong
Disadvantages: none

...Now iv not done a review on USB cables before, really its just never hit me that I could actually write about these and there’s also the fact that there’s not really much you can say about a cable, but ill give it a go. This is a normal printer cable which means it has two ends, one being the end which goes into any USB port in your computer or laptop, this end is the rectangle shaped end and is called a type A. The other end is which goes into your printer, and don’t worry as nearly every printer made has this kind of end so it will definitely fit, and this end is kind of square in shape and is known as the type B end. It transfers data to your computer at speeds of up to 480 mbps, that’s megabytes a second which is really fast and is about 40 times faster than USB 1.1 cables. The cable its self is 1.8 m...

Great Belkin USB product

Advantages: gives you an extra 1.8 meters on any USB product
Disadvantages: none

...that could connect my headset to the computer and let me use it, and this is what I did. I trudged down to my local PC world and paid a little money for a 1.8 meter Belkin Pro Series USB Extension Cable and was very very happy with it when I got home. It is very well made with a nice thick rubber protective rapping over the wire inside so unless you cut it with a knife its not going to be damaged if you full on it a little or even a allot. It supports all standard USB ports with its well made male plug (the bit that goes into the computer) and on the other end of the cable has a nice thick female port (the bit that you will stick your USB device in) I have had no problems with this cable at all, it doesn't suffer from any lag and because it has a thick cable it doesn't snap or damage if you catch it with you feet while its laying...

Obscure accessory for obsolete Olympus Digicams

Advantages: reasonably high quality cable
Disadvantages: Of very limited use

...and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) suppression beads are fitted at each end ? this is supposed to limit the radiated electromagnetic signal produced by serial cables, and reduces the tendency to pick up ?stray? signals. I also recall a ?direct to printer? option with this camera which ? given there wasn?t any other digital interface ? would have used this cable as well. I very much doubt the consumables for these printers are still available, so we might as well forget them right now (if you believe otherwise, tell me and I?ll gladly update the review) Instead of ?looking? like a ?removable disk? on your PC (as is the case with USB links), the serial cable uses dedicated software to allow the transfer of images. The dedicated software is still (as far as I know) available for download off the OLYMPUS site, but it can only be...

USB data cable for nokia

Advantages: necessity for camera/mp3 phones, allows fast transfer of files to your nokia
Disadvantages: not compatible with older computers and some Nokias

...with the cable. ---COST--- A USB data cable is usually supplied with your Nokia Phone and if your phone came with the data cable pictured then your phone will work with this cable. If you have lost or broken your data cable or bought your phone second hand and did not recieve one then you will need to pay around £5 - £10 depending on what sites or shops you buy it from. It is great value for money as you will always be using it. ---THE CABLE--- The cable its self is quite strong and will last a long time however if the cable is pulled or not looked after correctly then you will break it quickly. I have had the contacts bent on mine which means the connection between the phone and the PC can not be made and so the cable is useless. I have also had loose connections in the wire so while i was transfering data the slightest knock on the wire...

Review of Nokia DKU 2 Mobile phone cable

A poor offering from Olympus

Advantages: Takes AAA batteries and....er.....er...hmmmm.... takes AAA batteries
Disadvantages: Awful screen, not user friendly, feels cheap and nasty, made out of inferior materials etc. etc.

...the quality was good (or so I thought) so thought I was on to a winner. Olympus X-42 The Olympus X-42 digital camera is your typical point and shoot camera designed for the casual photographer. With the box stating ?12 mega pixels, 5x optical zoom, 2.7? LCD monitor, intelligent auto, digital image stabilisation, AF tracking, face detection and perfect shot preview? the specifications are very impressive, especially when you consider the price, all adding up to what I thought would be great value for money. In the box is the X-42 itself, an XD ? micro SD card adaptor, all necessary cables to link it up to a computer, a disc containing Olympus Master Software, a quick start guide and a further disc containing the user manual. The only thing it didn?t contain was some batteries, which surprised me somewhat. Most digital cameras...

Official Wii Component Video Cable

Advantages: Far better picture than standard composite, better looking games
Disadvantages: Expensive, Only needed for larger screens 32" or greater

...After the release of the little white bundle of joy on the 8/12/2006 people were given a composite cable to show off their new shinny new console. AV enthusiasts all know a composite signal is the poor quality option for showing video on their TV's - what people really want is RGB or Component video input. As console manufactures are out to make a profit they usually bundle the cheapest and most compatible option with the console and then release upgrades to that product for people who need or want it. Nintendo understand this and have released two video upgrade options - the Wii RGB cable or the Wii Component cable. Lets get things straight from the off, The Nintendo Wii is not a High Definition Console, What this cable does offer is a enhanced image resolution of 480p. I finally got hold of the component video cable after...

OLYMPUS VN-3100

Advantages: Record upto 36 hours, digital sound quality, compact device with mic
Disadvantages: Microphone not as effective as I thought

...The Olympus VN-3100 is known as a Dictation Machine, but I like to simply call it a portable voice recorder. In size it is not very big, thus being portable. It measures in at a length of 10 cm, a width of 3.5 cm and an overall depth of 1.7 cm. The top end of the the device has a depth of 1.3 cm and the bottom end which contains the batteries has a depth of 1.7 cm. The device is made in China, like many things are nowadays. The Olympus VN-3100 does not have a simple on/off button, but instead has a HOLD button on the top left hand side. To turn on the device you simply hold the HOLD button and pull it in a downwards direction. This in turn will turn on the device ready to be used. To turn it off push the HOLD button in an upwards direction. On the left-hand side there is also an area into which a USB cable is inserted in order to...

Amazing Little Cable

Advantages: Synchronizes mobile phone to PC
Disadvantages: None

...Drive and the user-friendly installation process was done with utmost ease. Nokia CA-42 Mobile phone cable must not be used while the installation is on process. When Nokia PC suite installation is finished, that's the time to plug the Nokia CA-42 Mobile phone cable to the computer's USB port and attach the phone to the other end of the cable. When my computer crashed, I had it sent to the technician for reformatting. When it was time for re-installation of drivers, I forgot where I hid the Nokia PC Suite CD. But then I was amazed that Nokia PC Suite driver was available in the internet. All I did was download Nokia PC Suite from the internet without the CD. SYNCHRONIZATION AND FILE TRANSFER When Nokia CA-42 Mobile phone cable is used to connect the phone to the computer, I can synchronize my phone with my computer. All...

USB Power-ed up Adapter

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. Because its USB charged, it takes quite a long time to charge it to full. 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. Also, you can change the adapter itself to European, Asian or wherever with great convenience. All you have to do is slide it...
