ACCO Brands 33085 Bluetooth Wireless Adapter

Pros: Compact, easy to use, and no wires...
Cons: Some devices are a bit tough to configure...

After playing with all other cool features of my new LG VX8100 mobile phone, I decided to test the Bluetooth capability. I already had my HP ...

Pros: Easy to throw in the trash
Cons: EVERYTHING about this device

I am a computer network administrator, and I am going in circles with this thing!

This thing is horrible. Here is why:

1. This device comes with a cd that can not and will not be found on Kensington's website, so don't bother looking for suppport.

UPDATE

I wrote to Kinsington, and they sent me a to an older version of WidComm.

2. The WidCOMM software (found on the supplied cd)is 3rd party and MUST be installed in order for the BT to work. I believe ver. 4 is out as of 8-2-05

3. I understand other brands allow for plug and play,not this device.

4. This device cost about $40 bucks, but why bother when you can purchase a better brand, cheaper at NewEgg.

If a computer network admin has to spend 2 hours getting it to work (which by the way I was able to make it work) why bother when something better is out there?

UPDATE: Try the DLink DBT-120. I understand many folks are happy with this.

If you are inclinded to purchase this, take note of the part number model number 33085 of which I am reviewing.
