BELKIN USB Adapter (10M)- Connect PC to Phone

Advantages: Small, Sleek, Connects to Phones, Good Coverage, Slim, fast, easy install
Disadvantages: Cap can get lost as it is quite small

...I have had this little product for about 4 Months now and I can say it is a wonderful little thing. The model I have is the: Belkin Bluetooth USB Adapter * Class 2; v1.2 10m This model is currently available for £8.99 on amazon (£3 cheaper than what I paid for it) and I can say it is the best thing I have bought. The reason why I bought this adapter was to connect my phone to my laptop and PC. <<*What it Does*>> This small and sleek adapter enables you to connect 2 or more bluetooth devices to each other wirelessly. This includes devices such as Mobile Phones and PDA's. I have connected both my Samsung D500 and Sony Ericsson W800i to my Laptop all at the same time. The coverage distance for this particular device is 10 metres therefore it makes it easy to pick up the bluetooth signals easily, although a much...

USB Hub:- Reliable USB Connection

Advantages: Small,stlish,value for money
Disadvantages: Plasticy. But all it will do is sit on a shelve.

...Being a fan of new technology and testing it as part of my work role , I have accumulated several USB devices. Getting fed up of having to climb round the back of PC every time I want to plug something in I went on an exbidition to PC World on the hunt for a solution. At 29.95 I found the solution in a Belkin 4 port USB Hub. Sylish design and a good brand name made this product the only real choice for me. The product comes complete with a power brick,USB cable and a set of instructions. Adding this to your system couldnot be simpler. Plug one lead into PC USB port,the other end into hub. Plug in your USB devices to the hub and errrr thats it. No drivers to install,no PC to take apart , no nothing. In my case , some of my devices needed power to be supplied by the USB port. In these cases , the supplied power brick can...

Review of Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 4-Port Hub - hub - 4 ports

Trust EasyConnect: Difficult to Fault...

Advantages: Good price, nice appearance, does the job!
Disadvantages: Slight stability issue

...We all have experienced having more desktop gadgets than USB ports, and when this experience fell to me I was landed with the task of searching for a reliable USB hub. The first one I bought was from a pound shop and was not reliable, and to be honest, was a waste of money as it did not have enough power to supply four attachments nor was it stable - the slightest nudge was enough to disconnect a USB device. So then I decided to visit Amazon and scrolled through the available products which was when I came across the Trust EasyConnect. Price ----------- Whilst it was obvious to me that the Trust EasyConnect was significantly more than the very cheap (but useless) USB hubs, I still felt it offered excellent value for money as it was from a manufacturer I had actually heard of and seemed to be of a good quality. I paid £9.49 for it...

SITECOM USB PCI CARD - So Many Connections

Advantages: Plug and Play Connectivity and Easy To Use
Disadvantages: Need Some PC Knowledge To Install

...reboot. One USB port can, I believe, support up to 144 devices if you connect them through several hubs. This means you should be able to have just the one card and pretty much an endless amount of devices. Of course you will need to remember to power each device because the card can supply up to only 500mA. RELIABILITY 100%. All the Sitecom products I?ve used from network cards to USB cards and more they have always worked perfectly. This particular card has never given me any problems either. INSTRUCTION MANUAL Not a great deal to it really, but then there doesn?t need to be. It covers everything required in a easy to understand format. MANUFACTURER SUPPORT Never had to use them because I?ve not had a problem so I can?t really comment. VALUE FOR MONEY Wonderful. You can get a card from about £10 to £15 on the net or as...

Connect Four

Advantages: fun, strategic, cheap, suitable for all ages
Disadvantages: none

...~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Connect Four ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ At 7 years old I was playing connect four with my brother and yesterday, aged 18 I played connect four with my youngest brother and still thoroughly enjoyed it! Connect four has been going for years and is a game of strategy for two players. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Game ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The actual game consists of a vertical board made from blue plastic, which has six slots running down through the centre of it where the counters can be dropped. The board has 42 circular holes in it where you can see the counters that have been dropped in through the top. To keep the board standing up there are two blue plastic legs which can be slotted on to each side of the board. Some versions of the game have the legs already attached. Many versions of the game have a flap...

Connections

Advantages: A Good Read and Not too Heavy
Disadvantages: Not an addictive read

...Sheila O'Flanagan is a popular Irish writer who has written a lot of popular novels. Her novels are normally one long continuous story. 'Connections' is different as it is a collection of stories, all based around a hotel - 'White Sands' - in the Carribean. There are 12 chapters in the book and each chapter has a heading of a name and room number. Chapter one begins with Corinne, who's in room 404 and is a crime-writer. She is on a working holiday, trying to get inspiration for her next novel, but is having a case of writer's block. It doesn't help when she sees everyone on the beach reading crime books by a different writer. The next chapter centres around Bree in room 217, who is here on holiday with her partner, Declan. He is 20 years older than her and widowed and he has been to White Sands with his wife. Bree is...

Belkin Wireless USB adaptor

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

...I bought this USB network adaptor for my son when he still had his Windows 98 machine as the PCI card that I reviewed previously was too advanced for his hardware. 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...

Mini LED Projector with USB connectivity!

Advantages: LED bulb, quick on quick off, USB connectivity
Disadvantages: Wish it was offered in multiple colors

...bulbs will last at least 20,000 hours. The best part about the GP1 is that it comes equipped with a USB port and I also bought the extra adapter for iPod /iPhone connectivity so I could just plug in my iPhone and play movies onto the wall whenever and wherever I want. That?s the great thing about the GP1, you don?t need a computer or a DVD player of any sort near you, you just hook up a USB or a phone, other sort of memory devices and play whatever you would like to see or hear. It has an onboard navigation system which will let you browse through your USB or device?s files, and even comes with speakers!...

CONNECT 4 - SIMPLE BUT GENIUS!!

Advantages: QUICK TO SET UP AND QUICK TO PUT AWAY
Disadvantages: ONLY FOR TWO PLAYERS

...CONNECT 4 Sometimes the simplest of games give the most pleasure and after playing Connect 4 with my children today I thought that I would review it. THE GAME ITSELF The game is made up of red and yellow counters and a simple blue plastic grid. The game is for two players and each player chooses one of the colours. The object of the game is to then slot the counters in the grid (it houses 42 counters as a maximum) at the top (taking turns) and the first player to get four counters in a straight line wins. The line can be horizontal, vertical or diagonal, but the row must be uninterrupted. Of course, whilst you are trying to get your four in a row, you are at the same time trying to block your opponent from achieving the same thing. What I like most about the game is that very young children can master it (I would say age 4...

Review of Connect Four

connect 4

Advantages: great classic game
Disadvantages: boring after a while

...This is the classic counter game for two players, the aim of the game is for those players to compete against each other taking it in turns to try to be the first to connect four counters together. Players take it in turns to use the yellow and red counters and placing them into the grid to form a straight line of four in a row, vertically, horizontally or diagonally. Who ever gets the four in a row wins the game. Each player takes it in turns and needs to think strategically as to where to put there next counter to help them to get four in a row, but to also think about if they need to block their opponent to stop them from winning the game. The game is simple but is great as it does not require hours to set up and a game can be as quick or as long as you want it to be. There are also not a long list of rules to be able to play...
