works great [Posted on 2004-06-09]
This adapter works very well compared to the Sony bluetooth adapter I tried (and returned). The Ambicom has good compatability between brands, and the software enables you to link easily with different services. There is even an option in the software to set up an ActiveSync connection, and a proxy internet connection for your PPC. Now my ipaq and vaio can sync easily without wires, using ActiveSync. In the setup, getting the COMport numbers correct can be a bit tricky -- it's important to pay attention to the steps in installation, and to consult your PDA manual. Also, I find I need to connect to ActiveSync (on the ipaq) through the bluetooth manager, which is easy, no problem. Once it's set up, it connects perfectly every time. A relief, after struggling with the Sony adapter and software -- and the Ambicom is half the price -- so I give this one 5 stars.
Works perfectly, once you download updated drivers. [Posted on 2004-07-21]
Download the updated drivers from the manufacturer's website to make this product work well with Windows XP. The real manufacturer is in Taiwan, and has no english webpage, so tread carefully. For me, it was a great deal and works great with my Sony Ericsson T637 from AT&T.
the apotheosis of plug and pray [Posted on 2004-10-31]
I'm quite curious where in the manufacturer's website I can find the updated XP drivers, as the previous reviewer has pointed out. After struggling for 2 hours to get this device to work with both a Motorola V505 and my friend's Sony Ericson Twhateveritis, I nearly wanted to break it. After installing the drivers that came on the CD, the thing is able to recognize both Bluetooth devices, but that's pretty much where it ends. I could not get any data transfer or further communication. I went to the manufacturer's website and there are no drivers to be downloaded. If there's a way around this, please post it. Otherwise it's going to be another lesson relearned: you get what you pay for-- if you buy it cheap, you're going to have to buy it again.
A good product. [Posted on 2007-07-10]
It is a good product to have just a little hard to get the right programming for window vista. Gotta look for it other than that it works great.
Buy something (anything) else. [Posted on 2007-08-27]
This device never worked properly. When I checked for a software upgrade, the manufacturers web site stated that the security settings had been tampered with and prevented me from downloading an upgrade. Besides the fact that the circuit board was enclosed so as to block the LED indicator, I think this is repackaged garbage.
