Tiny, Barely-There Size
The Micro USB Bluetooth Adapter lives up to its name with its fingernail-sized dimensions, measuring just 0.4 x 0.73 x 0.37 inches (WxHxD). When you plug it into your USB port, it sits flush and barely protrudes from the slot, so you don't have to worry about breaking it off accidentally, and you can keep it plugged in even when your laptop is in its case.

Bluetooth 2.0 +EDR for Fast Connections
Bluetooth technology provides your computer with the ability to connect to an ecosystem of Bluetooth-enabled devices. You can, for example, pair your hands-free headset with your computer so you can make Skype and other VoIP calls. And with thousands of Bluetooth devices available, you're open to a new world of wireless connectivity.

By using Bluetooth standard v2.0 +EDR along with your computer's USB 2.0 port, the Micro Bluetooth Adapter provides data transfer speeds that are up to three times faster than v1.2 adapters. You'll spend less time waiting while you share data between your laptop and PDA, music player, camera, and other Bluetooth-enabled devices.

The Micro USB Bluetooth Adapter has a range of 30 feet (peer-to-peer) and a maximum transfer rate of 3.0 Mbps (asymmetrical). It supports up to seven devices and requires Windows XP/Vista with USB support, an available USB drive, and a CD-ROM drive.

The MoGo Micro USB Bluetooth Adapter is backed by two-year warranty.

A Fine Solution5
The BlueSoleil software is typical of this and other mainstream Bluetooth dongles. It installed without a hitch on Windows XP. After the initial device pairing with the Microsoft 5000 Notebook Laser mouse (highly recommended) you never bother with the software again. It works in the background. It auto detects the mouse when turned on, and the connection sleeps during hibernation, and restores properly upon awakening.

The low profile is great, though depending on your USB jack, it may sit 1 or 2mm from your case. The rounded shape is a real plus for laptops when sliding them into your bags.

I received the Mogo Bluetooth adatper bundled with the Mogo PC Card Mouse. I'd been wanting the Mogo mouse for quite a while, but it just didnt make sense to have a mouse that stored in my notebook and a bluetooth dongle I had to carry around.

Set up was quite easy once I realized you had to load the software before inserting the dongle. Works great with 2 devices paired (Mogo Mouse & headphones). Even though the device is very small, range is very good.

The size benefit is a huge plus. I do keep it in my notebook at all times. While it has a very low profile, it does stick out about 1.3cm so be smart about where you plug it and how you store your notebook in its case.

Great solution if you're looking for bluetooth on the go...

Poor Support and Product Fails to Work After Short Period1
Bought the adapter about 6 months ago. It died after about 3 months. After trying for about two weeks to get to their support to respond they sent me a replacement. The replacement died after about a month. I have spent over a month trying to get another replacement through emails and telephone calls with no luck. Their support is terrible and evidently the adapter has an extremely short life. Don't count on their support or their products if you buy from them.
