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...

USB is for me

Advantages: Have plenty of USB ports at any time
Disadvantages: Can be a bit of a pain when it comes to the power supply.

...the transformer. On the top and directly over the USB sockets are LED's that tell me when any of the USB sockets are in use and another LED that tells me if it is connected to the transformer. How easy is it to use? I found it very easy to set up and use, first I plugged the connector lead into a spare USB socket on the back of my PC, then I plugged the other end into the USB hub. The next step was to plug the transformer into the mains and the corresponding pin into the socket on the USB hub. What can it be used for? I have used this for plugging in scanners, printers, mass-storage devices (including a PSP), web cam, a mouse, high-resolution cameras and USB hard drives. The list does not end there, also you can add flash card readers, Blue tooth adapters, pen drives, basically anything that has a USB connection can be plugged into...

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...

USB Stick Heaven

Advantages: Fast, Good Looking And Small
Disadvantages: Way too much packaging, may not be avaliable now

...it on Amazon, Ebay etc then go for it as it is a great buy. Overall I was very impressed by this little 8GB stick. Even just 5 years ago, 8GB storage devices was a huge capacity and now they are very small and just convient. I would recommend this to anyone wanting something reliable and fast. If this is just too big for you then go for a smaller size. I would now trust this brand completely and would buy future USB sticks from there. If you use a computer and don't have a USB stick then get one fast! Copyright- Scotlandizdabest on Ciao!...

External USB HUB

Advantages: external plug in device, easy to set up, runs smoothly
Disadvantages: None

...If you need to increase the number of USB ports on your system then I can highly reccomend the Belkin External USB Hub F5U021. Just plug it in and away you go and at just £24.99 from PCWorld it is very good value for money. It comes complete with everything you need to be up and running in under 1 minute. It has provided me with the solution as to how to plug 4 USB devices into 2 ports. It now runs my 2 printers, webcamera and scanner through one port without any problems of any sort. This small box of electronics plugs directly into an existing USB port and can then run upto 4 seperate USB devices via its own 4 USB ports situated at the rear. It comes with its own power source which you may or may not need to use depending upon what devices you want to run through it. By using the power supply your devices will get the same power...

Belkin wireless G USB Network Adaptor

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Not enough information on software or packaging.

...I recently bought a Belkin wireless adaptor when I went into a house share and needed to have the internet. I use the internet but I know little about the technical side of things. I paid £19.99 for the adaptor in PC world who only had Belkin at the time which I thought was not expensive. However installing it was a nightmare. The 3 easy steps on the box seemed so easy; Install the software, plug the adaptor into a USB PORT - start networking! If only it was that simple. Every time my computer searched for a network it crashed. I phoned the Belkin company who took me step by step through the technical part and still we could not get internet. Eventually the Belkin assistant told my for some reason my computer was not recognising the new network. Being increasingly frustrated I considered taking the adaptor back for a refund...

USB??? You mean FAB!!

Advantages: Well designed and useful product
Disadvantages: Could affect battery life on an older laptop model

...flight then that is when I have problems as I can't use the overhead lights without disturbing someone next to me or either in front or behind where I am sitting. So to receive this present of a Belkin USB portable lamp was an utter miracle from on high!!! Although at the time I opened the wrapping I didn't really realise how useful this could be to me and how much I would depend upon it. What this consists of is a basically a LED bulb that can be swivelled at all different types of angles with basically a clip that allows you to position it at any position on the edge of the Laptop screen. My preferred placement for it is at the top of the screen so the light can be shone down on the keyboard so that you can actually see what you are typing without squinting at all due to the fact you are relying on the light from the screen. I can...

Review of Belkin TraveLite Retractable USB Lamp

ION ITT USB TURNTABLE

Advantages: The easy way to transfer vinyl to cd or mp3
Disadvantages: expensive

...If you have a stack of old vinyl records at home and are frequently quoted saying ' they don't make records like they used to' then the ION ITT USB turntable is the product that you need. Whilst a lot of the classic vinyl albums have been released on CD there are still many that are not available. The turntable is made from sturdy plastic with clear easy to use controls. The only assembly required is to put the head together and attach it to the turntable mount. Getting the balance correct is fundamental to record reproduction but the instructions are clear and the task is comparatively easy. Software is included to load onto your computer and then connection is merely by means of a USB lead. The turntable is capable of playing vinyl singles, EP's or LP's at sppeds of 33 or 45 prm. Recording is simple. Play the vinyl...

Review of ION ITT USB

Belkin USB hub

Advantages: Plenty of ports, stackable, simple display
Disadvantages: Yet another power lead, relativley short cable.

...Im not an expert on USB hubs, so il just try to give a a good review based on my experiences of the product. I hope its helpful. Well, what can i say appart from "its a usb hub"!. It sits under my monitor and does everything i want it to to. The hub is plug and play, so no installation needed. It does need its own power outlet, and the adaptor is fairly large. It has a pleasant appearance, and the display consists of a red LED indicating power, and a green LED for each device connected. There are 5 USB 2.0 sockets on the back and 2 on the top. I've found that the rear sockets are best for permanent connections (keyboards, mice etc) and the top 2 are useful for small devices such as Digital cameras and especially USB flash drives. When a lot of devices are connected the hub does tend to move around (through tension from...
