What is Bulk Rate? BulkRate is a semi-wholesale system with items priced separately from retail. When you use bulk rates, a flat $1.70 registered air mail fee will automatically be added to your cart to ensure delivery of package. While BulkRate's intention is to offer cheaper prices when you buy in bulk, because it is priced separately it on occassions show a higher than retail price. That's why we ask you to enter BULKRATE as a coupon code to manually activate the rates. You can always opt not to use the bulk rates. If you are looking for wholesale prices please feel free to contact us.

Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: - Worked out of box on Vista Ultimate x64
- Almost unbelievably small
Cons: - Looking inside the socket, you see it's open. This means it probably collects some dust if it's laying around. Not a big deal though I guess.
- If your computers usb connector is not very deep in, part of the metal casing remains visible. Altough this is not a big deal, it annoys me as point of this dongle is to be small and unnoticeable. Of course, if one's connector is too deep, shorter version would not connect so it's probably better this way.
Other: Surprised it worked on x64 out of box. Glad it did.
Cheap and small dongle, get it if you need it.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Works out of the box with Windows XP SP2 and Linux (I use Mandriva 2008).
Just did this and everything works without a glitch:
mkdir -p /dev/bluetooth/rfcomm
mknod -m 666 /dev/bluetooth/rfcomm/0 c 216 0
mknod --mode=666 /dev/rfcomm0 c 216 0

Cons: The software provided on the driver disk (Bluesoleil2.6.0.8 Release 070517) failed with "Protection Error" after install. Newer version of BlueSoleil also failed to initialize the device (probably conflicting with generic Windows XP SP2 driver).
Other: Very good bluetooth dongle for the price. Package looks nice, and it glows blue in the dark. Nice little present, but do not forget to throw away the driver disk. However, I would choose a Bluetooth 2.1 dongle for extra two dollars, they are more progressive.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: -Supports A2DP (Confirmed!)
-Works in Vista (Confirmed!)
-Works with multiple devices (Confirmed!)
Cons: -Software included is a very old version V2 of the Bluesoleil (Current version is at v6)
-Can be misplaced easily since they are quite small
Other: I needed to get one of these dongles so that i could hook up my Moto S9 headset to the computer, and at the same time i wanted to make sure that the dongles supported A2DP for stero music. And i was uncertain at first, but took the plunge nevertheless. And im happy to report that these do the trick for just $7. Nice Product!
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Very small size!
Great price!
All is working good, im using this dongle now for 3 months.
Works great on WinXp, i have tested to VISTA and worked too.
Great connection with my mobile phone.
Included disc inside was Bluesoleil software and with this soft can make internet connection. I have tested. Speed is not the biggest but to check e-mail it's very good if you haven't access to internet
Cons: This Bluesoleil program is 3mb tranfer limit for one time. But can get crack on the internet or download other Bluesoleil with crack.
Other: best quality dongle for the best price. small size and pretty nice design
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Great plug and play performance - I'm using Windows 7, and this dongle was detected & installed in seconds. Paired with my A2DP speakers and Nokia phone without any trouble, even able to use them simultaenously. Range seems to be good, and it doesn't feel flimsy or have any obvious weak spots.
Cons: A little larger than I'd hoped - sticks out from my laptop by about 1cm, so I won't be leaving it in there. On the other hand, and smaller and it might be difficult to remove.
Other: Solid performance, good build, small but not really small enough to leave plugged into your laptop all the time.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Works well with XP drivers. Plug n Play worked flawlessly. It's quite small and paired well with my GPS. I use it with my Asus EeePC.
Cons: The BlueSoleill drivers and program that come with it are junk. Kept losing the pairing with my GPS. Uninstalled and used Windows drivers and everything is fine.
Other: You can't go wrong if with this little dongle if you need a good, cheap bluetooth. Seems to perform as well as the built in bluetoth in my Dell laptop.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Installed quickly by Windows XP Professional SP3 and Vista SP1 using Windows own driver version 5.1.2600.5512. The effective range indoor appeared to be about 20 feet, similar to that of a Bluetooth headset. The dongle is of the same small physical size as the Nano receivers of the Logitech mice. It could be left in the USB port when the laptop is on the move.
Cons: The data transfer rate appeared much slower than using an USB cable. The bright flashing blue LED was quite annoying. The edges of the plastic part need to be rounded.
Other: Although there are many selections of the Bluetooth dongles, I am ordering another unit of this model.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: - Works great.
- Cheap.
- Automatically installs within Vista and Windows 7 (32 and 64 bit).
Cons: - It LOOKS small but in fact the connector (the silver metal part) is LONGER than a normal USB connector by a little bit. The black part is indeed very small, but some silver sticks out before the black part.
- Kinda sharp. Will catch on things such as if you have a laptop backpack (catches on the zipper).
Other: Don't expect it to be as small as the logitech nano recievers for their mice.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: The price on this device is unreal. I cant believe it works so well for what it cost me. It fits snugly and barely sticks out.
Cons: The included disk contains an old version of blue soleil. It works but it has issues. I had to aquire an updated version somewhere else before it would work properly. Its light is a bit bright too, but I sprayed the plastic black, so now its just a dull glow.
Other: Good deal dispite its flaws!
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: - Really small piece of hardware
- Works under Windows XP SP2/Vista/Seven/ without additional drivers
- It is also tested under Ubuntu Linux and Mac OS X - works OK
- Nice blue led
- Good build quality
- Very useful for notebooks and netbooks
Cons: - It can be easily lost in your pocket :) because of its tiny size.
- Not so big working range - just a few meters. But that's totally enough to work with, for example, your cellphone or other bluetooth gadgets.
No other cons at all!
Other: I bought this one for my netbook without internal Bluetooth module. When inserted into USB port it is almost invisible. Really good.
